Default b16 turbo or all motor GSR?

I hav a '95 Ex coupe with the solid d16 vtec (y8? z6?) and so i want to do a classic motor swap. My home shop has a b16 with about 80,000 miles on it for like 800 (not including tranny, axles, etc.) and they also hav a GSR with about 50,000 miles and they're asking like 3500....which would be better? b16 + turbo kit or all motor GSR??? best bang for the buck???

the 95 EX had the d16z6, 96-00 EXs had the y8.

Get the GSR motor and put a hairdryer on it. The best of both options.

why not slap a turbo on that d16? cheaper then the gsr and about the same price for the b16 if you get a tranny.

also cheaper to find d16 a block.

If you are on a tight budget.. I'd say go with d16 turbo, plenty of power/potential, and cheap to build... a turbo b-series done right will cost alot.

I love the power of turbo, but the not having to worry as much about all motor. Me I'd do an all motor setup because I love to Touge.
