Default b16 or b18

I was just wont to know if you guys think its worth the extra money to go with a b18. Im leaning towards a b16a2. Im not really into going to drag strip all the time but will evey once and a will. I just want more than the stock 100hp and show those kids in there mustanges there not all that.

Everyone here will recomend b18, personally if your not a hardcore racer, b16 is satisfying enough. Its up to you.
