Default NA, Forced Induction (Turbo, Supercharger), New Motor....What to Choose????

NA with all the labor and parts would be with what i want to do with my B18B motor would run close to $6000-$6500
A properly tuned Turbocharger / Supercharger with all the accessories to up keep the motor from detonation, proper fuel consumption, air fuel ratio, etc. etc. would cost abit more possibly....
A used B18C1 / B18C5 with transmission, shift linkage, ecu, labor, etc. would cost possibly around $6500....this is so important to decifer because it's money $$$$ in the end it's money $$$$.....I've jumped from forced induction to NA now i feel a stock B18C5 motor would probably be the better bang for the buck.....what's some of your guys feelings...???

How much HP are you looking for or how quick of an ET do you want to run ?

base 200hp to the ground.....that can be achieved with some good toda parts on a stock B18C5 and turbocharged B18B not with a B18B NA but again NA is more reliable...is it not? and the power is @ your feet in an instant with a NA application...... No H22A swap i want a stock integra weight distribution....because i like to drive the canyons down here in Southern Cali....i need better brakes for sure.... WILL A B18C1 OR B18C5 BOLT DIRECTLY INTO MY INTEGRA....i don't understand why not but i'm sure it will....but can somebody confirm this

NO heavily modded car is reliable...

A turbo setup w/ common sense is just as reliable as any NA setup... it's drectly related to the amount of abuse you put on it daily....

I say go with whatever you can afford, but honestly if you want mad power, go turbo... if you want decent power on tap and less maintinance.. go supercharger.. and if you have azzloads of cash, patience and lots of tuning ... go N/A..

but either one is just as relaibel as the others... some are just more expensive..
