I need your opinion
i have got a 92 integra ls and it has 177,000 miles on it. After i finish installing the suspension setup i want to put in, I am either going to buy a b18b or rebuild the motor, and eventually boost. I cant decide which route to take. Which would be cheapest(or better for the money)? When I do boost, it is going to be a daily driver and probably wont be running more then 12 psi. I am on a budget here and I would like to spend no more then 2-3000 on the motor. Thanks for any replies.

If you have 177k miles I would recomend a refesh (rebuild) of the motor then boost it. Or you could boost it (if it's burning oil it'll just get worse) and save up to rebuild...
Either way 170+k + boost isn't good for long...........
wait boost OR b18b motor?
Get the b18.....177k is a lot of miles

Re: I need your opinion (tegsp)
Even if not the rebuild will not make the motor perfect again.. Unless you get it stripped down and hot tanked and resurface and all kinds of crap..
