You could swap the si engine into it obviously (k20z3 i think) , not sure after that. google it. It'd probably be easier to just sell and buy an SI at that point though, plus the SI would hold its value vs a heavily modded ex, plus you get all the extra SI niceties.

And if you're swapping the engine you're obviously swapping the tranny too so its just a matter of buying the manual tranny (assuming you have the appropriate sensors and harnesses)
