What should I do with my Frost White EH2???
Well I'm trying to put my car back together but don't know which route to go. This is almost like the N/A vs Turbo(kinda). I have a 92 Frost White EH2 that has a 00 JDM ITR tranny w/ Clutchmasters stage 4 clutch. I had a 98 B20B4 but the motor was recently blown.
I already have everything else(suspension, wheels, interior, and basic bolt ons that will go on the future motor). I will be getting some $$$ in like 3 weeks but I don't know what to do. Should I buy a GSR motor and add cams/valvetrain?? Or should I buy another B20B or B18B and turbo that. Both of these will come up to around the same price range.
The cams and valvetrain will be the EF-1 M22 setup w/ a thin headgasket and I already have JDM DC Sports 4-1 header w/ 2.5" collector.
The turbo kit will be a used Drag Gen Stage 3 from a friend of mine that had it on his car for 4 months(LS Integra). He is a master turbo technician and will install and tune the kit for me. The reason he is selling the kit is because he is upgrading to a Supra or RX-7(he wants a japanese supercar).
I really don't know what I want so I just want to see what you all think I should do. No I have never ridden in a turbo or cammed honda before so I don't know how it will feel.
This car will be daily driven and maybe taken to the drag strip once every blue moon. I'm not trying to be the fastest on the street-I just really don't know what to do. I do want reliability but both setups have their downfalls.
My hatch was my first DOHC Honda so I loved the power compared to my SOHC VTEC del sol.
Let me know what you think and maybe your opinion may be the one that puts the spark in my head for which way I want to go.

if you want reliable then go with some vtec b-series because when you turbo something it probably is not going to be reliable, especilly non-vtec when you are trying to take it to redline.
search under ls/vtec there was a long very good right up on it and why it is not reliable, i mean look at your b20
