first of all, welcome to HST

second of all, what are you looking for basically? are you just looking for a new motor because yours sucks, or for just a little more performance?

Basically if you have a d15, then swapping to a d16 should be cake. (hence the motors are the same series so the mounting locations and everything else are the same) Couple things you need to watch for though:

1. what obd is the engine. basically obd (on board diagnostics) is the generation of your wiring and ecu on your engine. (from OBD0, OBD1, and OBD2)

here's a good reference...

try to keep the same OBD, otherwise it's going to be a lot more complicated.

2.vtec. you said your engine now isn't equipped with vtec. If you're gonna ge a new engine that has vtec it'll have to be wired in. I'm not sure how to do it, but i know there's some tech articles that say how to do it.

but quite simply, anything can be done to hondas, (remember there are engine mount kits) it all just depends on what you're looking to accomplish, and how much cash you have
