Default OEM B16/B18 vs OEM B20 Headgasket

Im building a turboed engine for my EG civic, 400-500 whp goal. SC61 and Neukin manifold. Built engine.
I have a 84mm Benson B18C, and need a headgasket. Is the stock OEM B20 gasket as good as the OEM B16/B18 gasket? Or should I just go for the bored OEM gaskets made by Golden Eagle ??

there was a topic on this last week, if you have a vtec bottom end (b18c) then you need a vtec gasket bored out to whatever your bore is, i found the cheapest was ben@ import parts for the GE gasket
