You need to defy "faster". Are you talkin quarter mile times or autocross style.Depends on what you want to do to the motor and with the motor.
Drag Racing I d boost that b16.
Road racing Id build the b18 for endurance (naturally aspirated).
All of this is heavily debated on HT. But thats my opinion.

Do you want the power down low or up high? It depends on your driving habits and overall goals, both setups can be fast.

Yes, heavily debated. I wouldn't use the b16 in anything heavier than 2100lbs, speaking from an all-motor setup of course.
