    what he means is that the EK4 is a JDM chassis code hence why if you had a real EK4 it would have to be imported. you don't have an EK4 and i haven't seen a SOHC motor putting out 180-200 whp without a turbo. i hope i don't come off mean or anything. if you really want to know what your chassis code is, check the 4th-6th characters in your VIN.

    no problem dude, we're here to help :). see if you can get your hands on a B18C1 (DC2 GSR) or do the CRVtec swap like you said. Its like 600 bones for a B20 then a VTEC head isn't that much either. if you can do the work yourself you'll definitely save alot of money :). you have alot of choices, so think it through. there is always SOHC VTEC turbo setups that work well :googly:
