Default 2000 civic - for lsv turbo swap do I use gsr or b16 head?

hey i am wanting to replace my ls in my 2000 civic 4dr. I want to go lsv and possibly lsvt. Now i am to the point were i dont know whether to use a gsr head or a b16 head. I dont know what would work better with the turbo. Any ideas on what i should do.

Shouldn't make any difference. The engine would have to be re-tuned in any case. I think the consensus, however, would be to use the B16 head.

Neither is any better on than the other, for the exception of the crappy intake manifold the GSR has.

They both flow damn near the same, but the GSR will net a little highier compression.

Just go with whatever you can get.
