Cop or chop? (2002 Civic sedan)

So I blew the engine in my 2002 Civic Ex (4 door) and I was looking at putting a new engine in it. I'm looking to tune my car in the near future (Not to track car levels, just enough to have some fun driving around) and I was wondering if you guys think it is worthwhile to keep this car and put a new engine of my choice in and tune it? Or would it be better to get a different civic to tune? I don't have an extremely high budget (Max of about 5000$) slightly less if I buy a different civic. Also, if I keep my current civic and get a new engine, what's the best fit to put in it for tuning/compatibility? Thanks guys!

How does the car look? If you're starting with a turd, you're only gonna make it a faster turd.
