Default LS or GSR for boost?

ppl say to go with the LS motor do to that fact of the low compression. my question is i only wanna boost around 8psi. what motor would be better to boost a GSR or LS ?

arrggghhh here we go again.

IMO: LS... torque monster!
(mainly because you can run 8lbs of boost safer since the compression is lower)

then again... people have their opinions.. and i know what they will wanna say after they read what i just posted.

here are some ideas:
-GSR... more compression... more power.
-GSR... with tuning
-blah blah blah! hehe

Boost for Boost, the GSR will make more HP.

heres my question for you? is money an issue?
meaning if you blow up the GSR motor will you be assed out on money for another motors? If yes then stick with the LS motor and parts are cheaper.
IF NO then ditch the GSR and get ImportBuilder package3(b20vtec) with boost hehe..
