Just be aware that it'll probably cost you $5,500+ to do this swap, but it'll definately be awesome driving around a K20 civic.
Personally, if I were you, I would just go for a turbo. For the $5k you would need for a K20 swap, you could get a nice turbo kit, build the internals a bit, and be making around 220+ whp, which is way better than the 170 or so whp you get from the RSX engine. Besides, turbo'd cars are much more fun to drive.
