Default Built B16A or Turbo B16A?

What's the best set up, if you go only one way?(For launch/speed/etc) Build up the B16A, and up the compression? OR Boost the B16A? Reasons?

1 what island u from ?

2 if the motor will be built, go turbo. because an NA pump gas all motor b16 will be like 200whp, but with a turbo if you boost it like 8psi, you are already at 200whp, u go 10psi your gonna be probably at like 230whp, minimum. so if you want to run only 12s then go NA but if u wanna run 11s or faster go with the turbo, especially if you have a built block, u can always up the boost at the track to like 15psi and because yoru block is built, it will handle it then just turn down the boost to like 8psi on the street.
