what do u want ?
D 15b vtec Performance + CNG best of both worlds
B series engines hard to find and expensive but good bang for the money high performance
H22 Good performance but no Daily driving and expensive
K series setup will be hard to swap in a 95 in Pakistan

What kind of output do you want from the car? Performance only?
If performance. B series is best.
Otherwise stick to d15 Dual vtec. As member above stated. It will run fine on cng and wont be heavy on pocket.

h22=10km/L of gasoline.
k series for an eg?(k series are meant to put in civics after 7th gen)
for ef,eg i'l suggest you to go for d16z6 for economy.
for power f20b,h22,b20v.tec. bsss.

@poster K series k20A costs around 4lakh these days.swap cost is apart from this,alterations,mods etc atlast setup alone costs like 550-600k.and if you want a k.pro to run along add another 100k rupee,7 lakh?i guess its more than the worth of car itself.
go for b20,h22,or f20b if you find one.

^ even in eg , K series isnt a problem anymore
A red hatch recently got swapped with a k20 TypeR at MAXPOWER
According to the runs , the setup seemed to be running smooth but definitely deep pockets are needed :wink:

@poster
Stick to D series
JDM D15b 3 stage vtec - Bolt on - Easy life :slight_smile:

Hahahaha!!! :grin:
BTW which one should he opt for?
The one running on breaker points or the CDI one? :stuck_out_tongue:

@topic
IMHO fitting in a K series will require some body work where as the D & B series are almost a bolt on fit for this model.
D15b, B16a or B20 will be good.
IMO B20 block with B16 head would be a mean combo.

Chap i dint mean they cannot fit eg,i said they are newer motors,not meant to be swapped in eg.you know what?if you swap your 7th gen with a h22 and post on any international forum,they look down upon that,similarly they have classified engines for respective models,that is the reason eg is rarely swapped with K,eg is likely to be swapped with B and H(for power).and D for economy.
another reason as i said earlier is that K costs alot (even more than the cost of eg itself).

yup bro, i know what ur talking about :slight_smile:
i was just saying that the trend of k series swap in eg's has already begun
(Not in pak) , a K26 just made its way in an eg hatch last year and the car was getting ready for international DRAG race event :slight_smile:

If somebody has big time craze, deep pockets , self tuning expertise , only then he should be considering a swap of such HEAT :wink:
