Default engine choice

i just have a simple quick question to ask:
which would be the best route for a 95 integra with a b16a2
1) k swap
2) turbo b16a2
i would like to do the k swap and i have been doing a lot of research on this swap and i pretty much have all the info on the swap ( the wiring is a little confusing).
3) should i save for the k or turbo charge the b16
-im really asking this question because the future is with the k ( or so i have heard because they stopped making the b series.

boost the B16, but be smart. and get a really good tune. make sure that all your parts and pieces are in good working order and fluids are fresh. do it right the first time.

He said 95 Integra, obviously is not a DA. Turbo your B16 is the best answer.

the reason why it has a b16 is because the b18b that came in the car was shot and i did not have the money to buy a b18c r or gsr. my friend sold it to me for 1000. so a some what new engine in good condition (30,000 miles or so from japan) i had to go with it. (its my only mode of transportation) and he helped me pt it in too.

so turboing the b16 is the best answer probably the cheapest and less trouble.
would a turbo charged b16 stand a chance against a k. it probably would but just wanted to ask
