Default b18c turbo opinon

I have a b18c5 block un-assembled, I was going to rebuild with oem parts and put it together with my b16 head and go all motor. Then build my b16 block for turbo for another civic. Now I'm thinking if I should just build the type R block for boost and then sell my b16 block, then possibly grab another motor (maybe a k swap) Do you guys think thats a good idea or I should stick to my original plans? I want turbo bad and I also want a all motor set-up, I just don't know what I should do first. Cause whichever came first, the other would be put off for a little while, I'm not in any rush to finish both. Let me know what you guys think... Thanks.

Or another solution, just turbo my b16 (only 62k orignal miles) and sell the type R block and then go from there? Any opinons would be great thanks.

moderatly boost the b16 now, make c5 your NA build. then swap the c5 into your DD and build you b16 for more power.

sounds like a good idea. I want to turbo my car with the peakboost kit. I'm figuring order up my hondata and ecu, 7500cc injectors, the kit, then get tuned.
