what you're asking is kinda vague. Do you mean supercharging the D17? bc if you are then it won't happen since they don't make superchargers for the D17. Turbo, you can read all that in the turbo FAQ. As for a K20 swap, its the most reliable that requires the least maintenance, but will probably cost the most.

BlackKnight008 has a spectacular aura about

the k20 swap is the best idea for you if you have the money to burn, it is what I would want to do to my civic but alas money is always a problem, the difference between the turbo and supercharge is do you think that stress continuously on a car is worse then initiatiting it a certain points for a period of time but with the certain points comes a hard hit on the engine so it is debatable, but yea go for the k20 swap if you can
