Default what kinda motor

i have an integra shell, i bought it cheap with a body kit and air bags, so i kno all of you will immediatley hate, but since the body kit is molded i am not goin out of my way to get rid of it, i might get rid of the air bags tho. SO now that all of you kno that, what is the best motor/tranny transplant that i can get spending as little money as possible and still being fast. I was thinking LS vtec or B20 vtec. Any others I should consider?

i say something large with a turbo... and loose the "i can get spending as little money as possible and still being fast." out of that post... because both can not apply in your situation...

good point, but do u really think the body kit added that much wieght? i mean, i plan on getting rid of the air bags.

cheap and fast r 2 words that can't be used in the same sentance sorry. i'd do an LS vtec in it with thoughts of a turbo kit later, but any motor/ tranny combo to make that car fast isn't gonig to be cheap.
