Hi, I'm maybe planning on swapping either the a b18c1 or b18c5 in to my 92 hb eg civic vti (currently a b16a2).

Which would be better in the long run for maximum power for a street application? e.g If i wanted to supercharge the engine after the swap, would the b18c1 be better for boost or will the type-r engine handle it better? Bascially i'm looking for well over 200hp and I'm not sure which engine can get me there easiest!

I know the b18c5 is more powerful from stock, but could i get more out of the gsr engine?

I have heard that the b18c5 doesn't like boost, anyone got any ideas?

On the other hand, does anyone recommend sticking with the b16a2 and tubo-charging or supercharging that? or even a compound?

Any suggestions much appreciated.
