Default What would you do????

If you had the choice what would you do?? -
I have a B16a2, and have the choice to buy a toda stroker kit and add jenvey throttle bodies or ditch that and buy a b18c5 and then jenvey throttle bodies.

I figure both would put out very similar bhp and torque, but buying the b18c5 route would cost more and its the hassle of doing the engine swap.

Im very tempted to stay with my b16a2 and add the stroker kit and throttle bodies, what would you do????

Opinions appreciated please!!!

I would probably do the stroker kit or maybe ls/vtec although that was not one of your options.

well either way, your going too have too pull the motor.. but if the stroker kit + jenveys will cost less than i'd just go that route... more sleeper too.. b16 over b18c5 but seriously.. 2400? u may as well build a better bottom end for alot less.. maybe a resleeved b18b block bored to 84 or 85mm or just a regular b20 block with forged internals... more displacement, and u can pick a higher cr if yah want
