Default Trying to Decide b18b or b18c

i'm planning on a swap soon. the prices i see are mostly in the ~3000.00 range for a complete swap (b18c). I've seen where some work on a b18b can up the power considerably. which way is the better choice, seeing i have to buy either one anyway? thanks.

my goal is good power (NA) for the street, I don't race but want the power on tap.

DEFINITELY B18C! For the price difference between the two motors, there is just NO WAY you are going to be able to get the kind of reliable power that you are from a B18C.
