If you are going to get the B16B you should just get the B18C (GSR or ITR) you'll be happier you did and you can get more power later on.

best bang for buck swap wise is the B18c *gsr* B16b is a destroked b18c *ITR* mostly.

How much you have to spend how much work you want to put into the motor and your goals all effect what you'll do best with.

HMO!!!! have much better prices than what you listed, thats http://www.hmotorsonline.com

B16 is a good plate form, and cheap, but if your willing to spend a little more then definately get the gsr, or ITR.

My vote goes the GSR, too. Best all around B-Series motor.
