What would be the best engine for a tuned out honda civic?

I have a honda civic 2000 (coupe) and i am planning on making it a street racing car. I haven't worked with civics in the past and was wondering if anyone had experience working with them.

Which engine works best when upgraded with a turbo, air intake, performance exhaust, etc.

The b18c or k20a? Or is there another i should be aware of?



thanksWhat would be the best engine for a tuned out honda civic?H22a are also great engines but they are better for N/A builds, seeing as they are open deck and a ***** to turbo. i would say either one of the b18c or k20a are great choices. h22a, b18c, and k20a are by far the best engines honda has ever made (with the exception of the engine in the NSX, which i believe is the c32...? correct me if im wrong)What would be the best engine for a tuned out honda civic?
k20a is an amazing motor , just cost lots of money and time, I payed 6k for my motor from Hmotorsonline.com and another 4k in parts(Hondata Kpro was 1k alone) Its N/A at the moment with basic bolt-ons, pushing 232 whp ,Its in my 92 civic HB btw ....



if price is not a concern, k20 head/k24 bottom end + Turbo (gt35r) + Kpro and a good dyno tune. There are tons of other small items you need aswell. But a properly tuned k20/24 turbo is good for 450hp easily with stock internals. Just make sure you have a good set tire cause 450 FWHP will have no traction...



If you are considering doing this swap www.k20a.org was a big help for me and also http://www.hybrid-racing.com , they have a list of all the parts you need for this swap..... Its a long list compared to the B- series motorsWhat would be the best engine for a tuned out honda civic?i would go with the K-series motors, K20A would be very nice for a civic.



also i dont know why people are talking about a F20C motor for a civic.



F20C is for a RWD S2000 not a FWD civic.What would be the best engine for a tuned out honda civic?
^^^ wrong f20c is the best engine honda ever made.





a b18c or a k20 would be good

price wise the k20 is still a bit expensive.What would be the best engine for a tuned out honda civic?take a b16a1
