Default Need direction with Engine build (turbo-d/all motor-B)

Alright guys my current setup is in a 91 crx si

completely rebuilt d16z6 with about 7k on since rebuild
zex 59300 cam
zex valvesprings
arp head studs
y8 intake and b series tb
running obd1 p28 with phearable basemap
My plan was to turbo this motor with either a peakboost or AFI turbo kit and run about 1 bar of boost on it with a 57 trim t3/t4 turbo

This car is my daily/fun car I have other cars so if it is down or broke it is not a big deal but I have kinda been getting the itch lately to do an allmotor setup on a b18b I got laying around. I would do a fairly built allmotor b with a goal of around 210-220 whp lsvtec. I know it will be expensive but I would like something I can beat on and run hard consitantly. I like to go to the strip every now and then, auto x, and road course. I understand building an all around car limits me from doing well at any one thing and just bieng mediocre and everything.

Any input would be appreciated and I would like some opinions of people who have done this. Thanks

-Casey

Bingo.

And then if you want more horsepower down the road, you have more money left over for a better platform (RWD/AWD)
