whats more worth the money. I don't want to build a drag car just a quick little car to cruise around in.

If you D has like 200,000 miles, I say swap too. But if it is in good condition boost it. I would still replace the seals and stuff no matter what engine you decide to use.

Re: should I.... (xDantex)
If you want reliability swap it or keep it at lower boost. If you have the money do a swap the b16 isnt a bad choice and mine seems to be reliable I have only broken an IACV and done basic maintenence. It seems more practical to me because I still save gas and dont have to worry about a lot of stuff that some of my friends with boosted engines do. Also I can still have fun if I want. Just my 2 cents.

Re: should I.... (doublethink)
it runs pretty strong but I will probably have build it a little to handle the boost but the best part is my buddy is going to give me a turbo kit from his old del sol that he blew the motor in... so it will be cheap... that way I can throw the turbo on then if it does blow my d series I'll just swap it then.
