^^^First you need to do everything you can to prevent another one of your hondas gettin jacked.
It still got the B16 I assume?
If your gonna leave the B16 in there, I would say go boost.
The em1 is a really nice car, but it weighs over 2700ibs. 2700ibs is really tough to overcome in a N/A car, especially with the B16's lack of torque at initial acceleration.

Your car's beautiful man. I say NA of course, but if you want 1.8L or 2.0L you're just a block away. That's what's so awesome about the EM1. You can buy a B20Z block by itself, build it, and the rest is self explanatory. What coilovers are those, curious? Nevertheless, I think you should go big with NA.

nice car - I really like those rims. First mods should be 4 boots, >9000 killswitches, hood cable relocate, removable ecu, lojack, a pager, and a locked garage with a moat in Idaho. Then boost.

Not to be mean, but I wonder how long it will be before you will be back here saying "MY CAR WAS STOLEN!"
I don't think I'd keep an EM1 even if it was given to me for free.
