Default turbo my zc or put in a ls/vtec?

my first car was a 88 crx hf. i kept it for a month and then wanted something faster. i sold it, then got a 91 crx si. i enjoyed the SOHC for a while but wanted faster. i swaped in a zc and was happy with it for like 7 months. now (as you all know) i want to go faster. i cannot decide if i want to go with custom turbo on my zc or ls/vtec b18. what do you all think i should do. what whould you do?

Turbo...since you already have the engine why not? but I would make sure you get a turbo large enough to be used on a larger engine if you ever get bored

talk to ppl with either setup, do a search, see how much each would cost, how much money you got. See what you can actually find or get deals on, what do you want? all motor or boost? do you know enough about boost to do a turbo? do you know enough about a ls/vtec to do it? waaaay too many variables, wrong question to ask, theres millions of posts of this exact same question in the archives, if you need further help IM me.
