Yeah, and Hasport should be done making mounts for that particular swap by now or very soon. Lord... the torque monster that thing would be if you took a CRV K24A4 and boosted it!

You could throw a V10 in if you have enough money. But the biggest displacement cost effective swap would be an H23 swap. Engine's are pretty cheap and mount's for H motor's in EG's are pretty common. No vtec but thats why there not too expensive.

You'll get way better performance stock outta the h22, the b20 is great if your gonna put boost to it.

personally i think a b20 would be better a b/c b-series swap in an eg is real simple vs a H22 swap. You can also keep the power steering if desired with the b20 and there's always the option of a vtec head.

For all that money, just go out and buy a fast car. Just a thought.

for all what money? The $3000 (tops) he would spend on a b20 swap? Can't really buy any fast cars for 3 grand. Besides, after the swap he will have a fast car.

b20 isnt a great boost motor.... unless you do some engine work to is first to re-enforce it a bit... it cant handle boost very well stock...

But with a swap he'll be able to wreck both of your cars on top of having low insurance and good gas mileage. Some of us can't afford to just go out and buy a fast car.
