can't even count how many times this question has been asked. it all comes down to personal preference. as for asking people their opinion, there are enough defenders of both sides and plenty of people who will ignore the actual question and say "go b16 and then boost later". it'll all end up coming down to how many people actually decide to reply to this post, but i'll tell you right now there are plenty of people who will say b16 and plenty of people who will say d16. u gotta sit down and figure out exactly what you plan to build and what you want outta it, cuz there is no "right" answer here. decisions like this, hard as they may be, have to be made by whoever is dishin out the $$$ for it. good luck

get both, J/k. I like how most of the b20s Ive seen turboed put more torque than horsepower. But it seems that a majority of the d series do the same. sort of.
