If you don't know what to do, research and research and research. Ask to hang out with people on here that are doing a swap and learn.

As for the Type R engine swap... if you have the money go for it. Otherwise do more research and build a setup that will actually make more power that a Type R for less. If you want power, maybe look into doing a Turbo D series. If you want fun and peppy and an engine that will fill your engine bay like a "B series, then just go for an LS swap or a B16 swap if you want the VTEC.

There are TONS of options and routes to go with an empty engine bay. It all depends on what YOU want and what your goals are.
