b18c or a b18b would be fine. b18b are better to start with boost because of the low compression but the b18c will always give you more horspower because of the higher compression. both motors will do fine, just do moderate levels of boost and have them tuned well.

a b18c will be fine to boost. as long as you give it some good tuning, you'll have no problem

B18c is a great motor to boost. Like everyone says get it tuned. Also get atleast 440cc injectors and youll be doing great.
