Can I get my 2005 Ford Mustang Gt engine put in my 2005 Honda Civic LX?Is there any way to get my honda engine to crank out 225+ horsepower besides saying supercharger because there is not one for my honda?

well with enought money you can do anything, but you need to cut up your floor to build a custom tunnel, wiring, etc its a mess

Sure, anything is possible with money and good fab guy. Just look at the guys that put a Corvette motor in a Prelude and a civic hatchback.

YES! its not all that hard too. build a full tube chassis, gut shell of honda and drop it on. they are called "door slammers!". in all seriousness, its doable. just be ready for prob a $30-50k bill to make it happen. it would for the most part be a purpose built race car at that point.

On the LX model, no. But with an engine swap ,the K20A from the civic SI, or RSX type-s you could almost double the horsepower you have now.

I think a K20a swap would be better, and much easier...could get a type-r from japan making 220 stock at the flywheel...i'm sure Hasport has a swap kit for it...I beleive the Civic Si hatchbacks about that year had a detuned K20 anyway...it might not be very far off...i'm sure with an intake/exhaust/and a chip or something will probably do the trickdont stoop to the mustang level

yeah. you can turbo it. turbocharging small inline 4's is alot better than supercharging them. save the supercharger for yoru pony car. you can easily get 225hp with a t3 set-up in your civic.
