Icon2 Which motor is better to boost?

I have a 96 gsr and want to go fully built boost..but I dont know if i should do it with my gsr or go with a gsr bottom block with a itr head.. I also want it to be a reliable car.. I am a honda noob so i dont really know what kind of setup to go but i knw i would like to go boost with a semi built motor... anyone have any ideas for a good setup with boost let me know please! just keep in mind i have a gsr motor already not trying to get a different motor maybe only a different head which is a itr...

Let me knw thanks...

It depends on your power goals. Obviously using the ITR head is going to allow the engine to breathe easier and rev a tad higher. Either way, ITR head or ITR cams in a GSR head, you're going to want those cams. Even on ~300whp builds, there is power to be made from GSR to ITR cams
