Default engine questions

i was wondering before i drop the money on a H22 type S engine, is it really worth $4000, or would it be cheaper to just buy a jdm engine and put type S pistons and cams in it. i've read that that is really the only difference in the 2 engines

jdm engine, screw the type s cams, buy something worth while like some skunk 2's or crowers
