What to Turbo???

Need help on making a decision on what engine to get. I will be equiping this engine with a turbo, and i want something that will last as a daily driver. Should i go with a D16 swap? if so which model, OR a DOHC ZC engine. any suggestions are welcome.

i would LOVE to, but im on a budget and dont have enough for a series swap. Would like to stay with a D-series engine so it bolts right in.

what ever you do, remember:

you only get to pick 2:

cheap - reliable - fast

cheap and fast isnt reliable
