    No one likes the h22a? Dude, if the h22a went in our car I'm sure we'd all have one. If you have that much money to spend on a swap, then go for the h22a. The only thing you have to do is find someone who will weld it in.

    get a b20 from a jdm accord and supercharge it with nitrous, you could also throw a turbo on there too.

    if it were me, i would go with a b18c5 turboed!

    with only 10 grand you wont get too far though. realistically if you want power either build and turbo your a20, or do a b20 swap for relatively cheap, and build and turbo THAT.

    with a swap you are gonna waste all your money just getting another stock engine in your car ! and leave less money for MODS!

    If I had 10g to make a car fast, it probably wouldn't be an accord But yeah if you have the money to blow, spend 2500 or so on the H22A and then a few thousand to get it installed.. 200hp and 161lb of torque will treat you nicely.
