Which would be best?
Well I currently have a b18b in my car with a obd1 gsr ecu, gsr trany, a type r L.S.D. and a port and polished b18c1 head in my garage. I autoX and am going to try road race before summer is over, and I want more power.
My question is which would cheaper/easyer for my to do LS/vtec, super charge, turbo?
I'm looking for at least about 200whp, and I'm going to do all the work in my drive way, so I don't have to pay those hi priced shops (ive changed my own head gasket before- ls/vtec shouldn't be too hard).
I'm just trying to get suggestions right now so any you guys have would be great.
thanks a lot!

Where's RJ at? He'll give the whole, you should learn to drive the car up to the limit (and feel what beyond the limit is) before making modifications lecture.
From a practical standpoint, I would also agree. Adding more power can get you into reliability issues, especially with a turbo in track events where heat is a major concern b/c you're on the track several times a day for 20 to 30 minutes each time.
When you stop modding the car for power, you'll have more money to put into safety items. Safety should be a priority for anybody wanting to race on a road course.
If you really want to do track events, I suggest keeping it simple. It'll alleviate greater worry about reliability and allow you to focus more on learning and driving.

since you have a GS-R head, i say look up some good LS/Vtec information and consider it. i dont personally know anyone that has done it, and i dont know much about it myself, but i think if its done right, its not a bad idea.
youd just have to research it for yourself.
