Default Motor Delema... which to choose... and why..

Looking for a swap for an EK HB. I have been looking at B16B, and JDM ITR. I know that the b16b is essentially a destroked 1.8, but is there any benefit from choosing one over the other? Price is not a factor.

Why would you buy a b16b with less hp, less tq, less displacement, and costs more then a JDM b18c ITR engine?

I would personally get the ITR rather than CTR. Don't get me wrong, both are badass motors

Thats why i was asking opinions... i was jsut curious to see if one was better than the other. the B16b is 185hp , and the ITR is 200 hp correct?
