Question V6 on 2005 civic

Hi, i got a 2005 civic DX and i really want it to kick a$$. before i had a 300zx twin turbo and i loved it. i wanted my civic to be twin turbo too, and the only way is to have a V6+. what V6 motors can i consider that will fit my car? i was thinking the accord/oddysey V6 v-tec but i wanted to be sure. Also i wanted to know what will i need. im not sure if i have to change the transmission (i got a 5 speed manual one) but someone has a list of parts needed for this kind of swap? thanks

are you serious?
if so..i mean..i guess..with money, you can do anything...
but as for getting help to put a motor that big into a 7thgen here..good luck finding help...
if you have the money for a swap, swap in a K series motor..

First of all, anything can be done if you have the money.

Second, have fun trying to twin turbo an engine that will already have trouble fitting into the engine bay.

You can swap an rsx engine and turbo and maybe even twin turbo that or twin turbo the d17 motor in your car which will prove to be pointless...
