Default b20vtec turbo or b18c1 turbo? need some opinions

ok here the choice i have
1) a b20 block that i used on my high compression motor that i messed up the walls
2) a b18c1 block that still have high compression pistons in there still new neva started

im givin up with all motor and going turbo and im getting the block sleeves, i need some opinion or personal experience that u guys have. what block should i be better off with.
im getting rods and low compression pistons and all the works for the setup, just wanna hear what u guy think i should go with b20vtec or just gsr turbo.

im new to this turbo stuff just wanna know what would make better power and less headache in the long run.

Definitely GSR turbo. Those b20 walls are weak sauce.

Im pretty sure he said he was gonna sleeve it, but i would go with the GSR block anyways because it has the block girlde and you dont have to modify the block for vtec. But in the long run since your getting the block built, just go with whichever one will be cheaper.

OOO. In that case, I'd use the B20 crank with the GSR block. It'll give you a broader powerband.
