2.2 CL + 2.2L Prelude engine swap? possible?

I never really thought about it till now but, i notice that the engine size of the 2.2cl and the 97 preludes are the same, and also notice that the prelude also packs more hp on that engine. is it a costly procedure to do this engine swap? on the + note i can easily find superchargers for preludes but not cl's, so could that be another advantage of using the prelude engine?

how much, how much, how much?

how much did you have to pay for your turbo kit/h22 swap? with installation and everything?
how much hp/torque gain was there after the installs?
How much time would have to go into it with professional installation?
emissions testing is a big worry too.

-btw sweet cl dude, i give you major props on it. cl's are so friggin difficult to work with.

swap = 2000 installed (2 day install)
kit = (custom) too much
emissions = none (i live in florida)
hp = 170 allmotor (stock motor)
hp = turbo dont know yet (new setup will be dynoing soon then to the track)
