I'd consider a V-8 conversion simply for the sake of being wacky...but probably wouldn't waste the time for a different 4 banger or even a 6 cylinder...

brantshali... you think that you're flame proof today don't you. Keep knocking the hive if you want... And I thought that the suggestion about a V6 was bad enough.

I wasn't kidding...I think hybrid cars are cool. I've been a fan of the Insight since it came out. Actually pretty fun to drive for a "hippie car" (my friend owned one and that's what he called his).

If my motor blew I might transplant a K20 from a base RSX. Why? lower compression by far than the S which leaves more room for turbo pressure!!!!!
