Accord engine won't fit. Depend on ur budget and how much you want to spend. I would go a K20.

k20a is a type R engine-- high compression, etc. A k20a is a great idea if you want to stay n/a. But if you want to boost later with a k swap, i'd suggest an a2 trans, a3 short block, and a2 head, i would also run K-pro or guardian. And then down the road--> Stage 2 cybernation.
