Honda says that they'll do the install for most aftermarket products if you want (or even their own).. but if something happens to your car as a result, your warranty does not apply.
The 2002 Civic Si is like 114 torque and 127 hp.

Ali, definitely not worth it. The VTEC motors and automatic trannies don't work that well together. I remember driving a 6th gen Civic Sedan and a 1.6 EL (both automatics) and I could barely tell the difference. It was hard to get the EL into the VTEC zone without flooring the throttle pedal. The 7th gen is a little more noticable but barely.
Just my $0.02.

The RSX-S engine changeover costs $5500-6000 USD. That'd be worth it IMO. But then again, if you sell you car and spend the swap money on a new ride, you can prolly get a Type S, so...depends on what you want.

The 6th gen and the EL are both the same cars, just EL is a little more plush, but the EL has the D16Y8, same as the 6th gen Si, but the iVTEC is diff because it is not in the EL and Si.
