The perfect engine for a 2002 civic coupe would be an K20A ITR or an K20A2 RSX-S. Go to Hasport.com and look at the k20 swap or go to Honda wrex.

Good engine and good install mmmm prob about 5-7 grand for everything depending on the engine you want and what all you want done to it. Mod's Install ETC.

The best engine is the one the car comes with.

Next best would be a K series from what I've heard on this site. Although you are in for alot of hard work!

K20 sieries from an RSX-S (prob like $7k installed and done), then internal work then slap on a turbo. Maybe like $12k, dunno but that sounds [retty good to me.

I have heard 9 to 10 when everything is done. I mean if you can get it done for 7 well done. I just dont think it is worth it when you can get the same power from a D17 witha turbo for around 3500 bucks

LMAO... They were made in detroit in the 60's.... Maybe Indiana today?

Everyone has covered your basics and there is a great swap FAQ by Hawk that should help ya a bit....
