The Type R will make more HP stock, but it also costs a lot more, parts cost more, and they're a bit more rare.
What are your WHP goals?

Type R : cost's more, more HP stock
GSR: Costs a lil less, little less HP stock, but money saved can be used on parts for the motor.
Depends on what your budget is.
Read thru this
https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/878010
B18C1 (or JDM B18C)
These come out of an Integra GSR.
Pros
Good Hp and TQ numbers (170, 121 ft/lbs respectively)
DOHC VTEC
Tons of potential
High revving
Cons
Expensive
Becoming moreso as people keep scooping them up
Slighty longer tranny than the ITR and B16
##############################################
B18C5 (or JDM B18C)
This is found in the Integra Type-R. IMHO this is the best swap for a Civic.
Pros
GREAT HP and TQ numbers (195 and 134 ft/lbs)
High revving
Hand built motor from Honda
Optional factory LSD
Best transmission for a B series from the factory
Red valve cover
Cons
EXPENSIVE
If JDM ITR is used, the 36mm axle 32mm hub problems occur

Not on a stock block.
Go do some research before you ask nine million questions.
