Default Cost efficient swap...

What would the most cost efficient swap (ie mounting brackets, ecu, etc) be for a 3rd Gen Prelude?

there really isn't one, so pretty much the most cost efficient would be to turbo your engine, if you have an Si, if your like me with an S, just throw the H22 in there, there is nothing ready made for our cars, check out some of the cars on www.preludepower.com and if your not already on www.sfpoa.net you need to join

well let's not be TOO much of an ass. I'd rather my lude than a civic or crx. Especially 3rd gen, since they're none to common and still can turn a head when I fly by.

Yeah, sounds fun, but the not cheap part just stuck it through the heart. I've got under a thousand to work with on actually aquiring the said need. Thanks for trying?

trying, but I gotta get the trans too. B20A5's have a finiky trans and don't accept any other engine, which hurts the search. If you find a h22 with a trans for under $1000, let me know.
