Boosting an LS or CRV motor...

hey, i just had a question about boosting the CRV motor....the CRV and LS motor seem very similar in that they both don't have Vtec. but the crv motor is a 2 liter and the ls is a 1.8...

so if i had the choice to boost one of them....wouldn't i pick the crv? i mean, its way cheaper, and its a bigger displacment...the only draw back i can think of is that the crv doesn't have as good of head flow as teh ls...simply cause its a fuking SUV motor...but nothing a port job can't fix right? what do you guys think of this?
