Default Del sol with trottlebodies or b18 engine

hi guys

i am from holland and just like a lot of you here i own a honda del sol 125Hp SOHC
This i find rather slow. So after a long talk today with a mecanic..he gave me 2 options te make my car faster. 1st...Trottlebodies in combination with a DTA stand alone fuel management system. ha also want´s to do my cam, put in a internal vtec controler ans some other small stuff. Tis all together should put me at 185HP.
2nd option is a b18 engine 190Hp . So what is the best option to go for...?

Greetz

What do you think? A D-serie tuned to the max with 185hp, revving the **** out of it and costing you a shitload of money..

or a B18c6 192hp costing you ALOT of money, but giving you a basis for even more and eventually you'll want more.. everybody does..

Antwerp = Belgium.. could you get away with ITB's with those laws? I think not..

Holland here too, also SLH.. ITB's might look & sound & work really nice, but unless you can get something at a 'normal' price, its really not worth the D-series.
