Default b18b or d15-vtec

ok so i bought my civic with a ls swap on it.... i put a password kevlar intake, a hytech header and played a little with chrome... it makes 160hp and 132ft lbs (torque curve is soo flat its perfect) anyways ive been wanting a boosted single slammer since i got my first civic 3 years ago.. so i guess my question is would i be better off swapping motors (supposed to do it tomorrow) or keep the ls and maybe supercharge it?

Why not boost the B18B?

X2, I put a Turbo setup on the LS. I'm not a fan of Superchargers but to each there own on that one.

i would love to lol i just picked up another civic after i blew up my talon that put 342hp and 374ft lbs down... and it was awd so this is weak sauce compared to it lol.... if i was tu supercharge it i would want to find something i could bolt to the ac bracket then intercool it with a BOV to the throttle body... in all honesty im done with turbo's for a bit lol unless i can find a decent complete b series kit..

I wouldn't mind seeing a supercharged B18... Can't say I've seen one of those yet, then again, I haven't exactly searched youtube for that yet... lol
