Default help from experienced hybriders

on the advice of many people from h-t, im gonna get a b18b swap for my 96 coupe in sept or so. however, i need some advice/recommendations on where i should go from there. i want this to be a reliable, daily driven street car that i can take to the track and put down decent numbers. so, should i start saving for a vtec head after i get my swap? or should i go turbo or even supercharge? which will be the most reliable while not requiring too much underhood maintenance? thanks guys

Go Turbo (More fun) right compression.

Hey before these guys tell you, Try using the search function. I'm pretty sure typing in the word LS should bring up a bunch of topics relating to this.

dont have the $$ for a b18c right now, and the ls is a good starting point since i can (like i said above) go either lsvtec or fi. as for the search, i did one and couldn't seem to find the info i wanted, so i was just hopin some more knowledgeable people could help me out (see i'm not as big a newbie as i used to be)
