05 Civic 1.7
What is the best way to make power? Or should I just do a motor swap? Plz help. I'm tired of being so slow!

dx/lx? or ex?

Power goals?

What do you want to accomplish with the power? A bit of pep to your step? Racing?

Sell it and buy an Si.

EP3 for a more unique Si.

RSX is a nice choice too.
