Default ls/vtec should I buy or build?

I kinda like importbuilders packages they are very impressive.
But it might be cheaper to build my own right?
If there are any other opinions on my post please reply.

Ouch!! Pay the thing off first, then go all out.
Or, sell that thing and buy a cheaper car to do a swap in.
