Default better for boost b16a or b18c

ok guys all i'm lookin for is a brief explaination here..i'm doin my swap SOON.. and i want to make the right decision..to make this short i drove my friend's newly boosted RSX-S last night and it was absolutly insane..so now i know for a fact i well definatly be boosting whatever motor i swap.. please consider the cost of everything when telling me why i should do each swap as b16 swaps normally run about 2500 and GSR's around 3500(these aren't written in stone)..as most of us here on H-T i'm not rich so we all know what its like to have to work EVERYDAY for what we want..all in all i'm looking for a low 13 - high 12 second street car with full interior..i guess by now u guys see where i'm going with this..help a brofa out..my main concern is cost to power ratio.. i mean is having that extra .2 liters of displacment gonna be worth my extra $1000 in achieving my goals? cuz i mean $1000 could go to a pretty nice piston/rod setup in a B16..also should i go with a JDM motor or USDM?
sorry i also forgot to include that the car is a 93' EJ1.. thats a 93' civic ex 2dr for the non-chassis code competent..

thanx much in advance!!
