Default ITR or GSR for turbo?

Well I am planning to start a new project. It will involve the build up of an ITR or GSR engine with pistons rods and ss valves, and that's all. I am planning to build a custom turbo for it, utilizing a t3 super 60 turbo and running 10-12 psi. I use the car as a lapping car so I like the smaller turbo for the quick response as well as flat torque cure. Now my dilema is weather to go with an ITR engine or a GSR engine. The price is not really an issue here since I get really good deals on engines and an ITR engine will not cost me that much more. What I want to know is which engine would you suggest for better flow characteristics as well as general performace.

Thanx

For the money, you could build up a GSR block to handle serious boost, if you have a B18C5 already then go with that.

why not? That was my question?

And I will be not sleeving the engine, since I will be running relatively low boost.

An ITR engine is as good as any other factory B-series motor. It all depends on how you prepare the engine, assemble, and tune the turbo.
