Default H22 Type S vs. B20V-tec

I need advise on what I should put in my 97 coupe the D motor is about to die so It's time to move up.
the H22 is cheaper and more power but would the B20 be better boosted then the h22 as what motor can take more boost?
LOL I have a month to choose....

I'll give my 2 cents. I'm building a turbod16, and I love my d-series. but I don't preach on that. DOHC, I hear a thousand good things about some h22s and b16s, b18s,b20s and all. turboed h22, not great to boost I have heard. you prolly heard of the gods of swaps, cost a arm and leg but I dn't know all the info. do you have a tranny for the h22 and/or b? or is these th only ones you are considering? but between those 2, personally b-series because I haven't heard of alot of problem, such as the h22s and tranny problems. b16s are funner for tuning I hear as well. I have no personal experience on these. My friend had a 99 SI b-series, never had problems, and his tranny is the one's that is like #1 rated for s-series swaps. good luck no matter what

I'd do the B20/Vtec head

I don't have a reason (I have one but it's not one that I feel like typing out anyways)
