Default b18 ls Civic

I have a 95 2dr Civic with a b18ls motor. I was thinking about saving my money and trying to get ahold of a GSR head. I was wondering if I should just modify the engine as LS or if i should save up for a different head? Another possibilty was going b16 head/ls bottom end. If anyone knows which one of these performs the best that would be great help. Thanks

Keep the ls Motor install a head gasket and head studs a nice t3/t4 turbo kit with proper fuel managment and have a good time in the 12s tuned.

If I were you, I'd go LS/VTEC for all motor setup. LS/VTEC is fun. If not, turbo that LS.

Thanks for the help. Since this is my first Honda im looking forward to having some fun. It should definatly be more fun then my previous car, 2.0 95 Jetta. Is there anything else about the LS motor that I should be aware of?

Another question. If i decide to boost it, what all will I have to replace before doing so? I haven't looked into boosting to much. Thanks for the help!
