Default HP VS TORQUE?

I wanted to know is b16a2 worth getting or is a LS better for a boosted daily driver. Which one is better for cost wise for a boosted motor?

I'm guessing you'd just run the turbo on stock internals?

In my opinion Id go LS ive seen both and ls yeild good torque and hp. Not knocking the b16 its a great motor also but thats just my .02
Btw any boosted car will be an efficent daily driver as long as you build it RIGHT and not take any short cuts. Gl on what ever u decide to go with.
