Hes a canadian like me, so yes they made Si's. They are the same as your EX. The engine in your car is a d16y8. The Easiest and most popular swap is b16a, you can also thrown in a b18b/b18c1/b18c5.
B16a is a great starter engine, found commonly in 99-00 SiR's( USA= Si) u can also find them in JDM CRX SiR's, JDM Integra XSi's, Del Sol Vtec, and JDM Civic's.
There are also SUPER cheap turbo kits for the d16 if u are looking in that route. A full turbo kit ( used) just sold here in Vancouver for 2600, and a full Supercharger setup is selling for 1700. Try posting at hondaswap.com if u have anymore questions about swaps. They are amazingly helpful and know their stuff.
