Default Budget Boosted B18C1

Hey guys I have a future project and am wondering if you guys could throw out any numbers on cost and recommendations. So for my goals for this car I'm looking for a Insanely reliable daily driver with around 300-350 hp. And on a decent budget. With the daily driver part being said I want either full, or close to full interior(might take out rear seats just for looks because I like that) and has to have A/C. P/S is not of concern. I want the car to also be clean as **** and a little lowered. For the car I'm dead set on a Integra LS around the year of 97. I will try to find one with low miles and minimal rust for around 3k. The engine is not staying stock though. I really don't want to have a boosted b18b because that's what most integra owners have. I was wanting to get a B18C1 and boost it. How much would you think it would cost to have a super reliable 300-350 hp boosted B18C1, including sleeves, internals, and turbo setup. The price of EVERYTHING including engine. And also am I even headed in the right direction with this build or is this engine not ideal for a SUPER RELIABLE decent budget build. I'm not looking to spend over 7k on the engine and a shop will have to do a lot of the work. Thanks guys for helping me out

If you wanted to learn, you would have clicked the link I just spoon fed you, and read it. Instead, you're continuing to expect more spoon feeding. That's not how it works.

I'm new to this site and didn't notice the link so no need to Act like that's "That's not how it works.

How did you find the site then? Oh right, you probably googled it. Funny how search engines help you find encyclopedias like this (sarcasm)

Honestly I do not have the knowledge to look up every part I need. I was just trying to get a ballpark figure to see if this is something it should look more into, but I can't find threads on boosted b18c1 and I found a couple threads about just a b18c1 swap cost but either it was a couple years old or the person did the work themselves, like I said I would have to have the shop to some of the work as I don't have the knowledge. And just for a basic question could I have a 300 hp reliable daily driven boosted b18c5 that I would not have to worry about messing up all the time, thanks if you can answer this

You better have a much larger budget for those goals, especially if a shop is doing all the work.

Your best bet is to buy one. You should be able to find plenty of completed or near completed projects for less than 7 grand. 3 grand can get you a decent car but..... In your case you should probably profit from someone else's sweat.
