Default Semi built poormans type r?

Is it even worth it? Because i was thinking B20 vtec but i really don't want to do the whole conversion thing. Or Gsr block with ls crank and rods with ctr pistons but then i'd run into clearance issues and don't want that crappy rod to stroke ratio anyways just for a few more cc's of power for that i'd rather bore out a gsr block to 2.0. Anyways I'd like to see other semi built poormans type r builds. Mainly in DC integras. Thanks in advance guys.

A guy that is local to me had one with bolt ons and my stock h2b pulled him. If i remeber right i think he made like 180 hp and tq was like low 130's. Cant remeber the header custom exhaust s2 pro mani bdl throttle body clutch flywheel

I never found a problem with the GSR/LS crank option. If the engine is well-balanced, you won't worry about the rod/stroke ratio anyway.
