plus your still stuck with the sohc instead of dohc which can make a pretty good difference if it's tuned properly.
If your definately going to swap down the road then sure get a b now.. there are more options and configurations... (ie head/piston/valve/spring swaps which are all stock parts.) But you'd learn a lot more from turboing your d and you wouldn't be risking blowing a pricey motor.

Thats why you get the block RESLEEVED, sorry i didnt point this out but by rebuilt i meant that aswell.
Well as we can see from the "fastest all-motor civic" debate, the extra cam isnt really helping out all that much. Since bisi was able to beat the DOHC record(for a short time) with a SOHC.
There are alot of options when it comes to the d engine as well, you even gave an example with the GX pistons in the other thread. Plus all the parts are cheaper with the d.
