Default B16, B18, B18C5, or B20......which one do i get?

Alright, im tired of maintaining a turbo so i sold the kit. Now all im left with is a b16 with low comp. pistons 9:1. Im thinking of going NOS. You guys think I should go B20, B18, or do a whole type-r swap. Or do you guys think i should stay B16 and shoot NOS with current setup. Dam so many choices. Opinions and advice is deeply appreciated.

Ive heard b20 has weak sleeves and i wanna go nitrous. I dont have the cash for resleeving the block either. What do you think about the type-r w/ nitrous.

You don't have enough money to resleeve a block but you have enough to buy a b18c5
