It's pretty obvious if you search the forums. VTEC head flows better, lets you rev higher, gives you bigger cams, gives you more room to port it.

I say just boost the LS that is in there already. People have made well over 300 whp on stock LS blocks on pump gas. Might as well boost that nonVTEC. In the mean time buy a VTEC longblock and rework it's internals to be a little more durable so that you can go crazy with the whp.
Once you completed the built VTEC block, you could just drop it in the car and pretty much everything on your turbo setup would be usable with the brand new engine (minus the ecu for example).
