Default B16 looking for Turbo but daily driven

Hey everyone, well I am looking to turbo my EG hatch and just wanted to hear what some of your guys recommendations were. The car is going to be daily driven and will actually be driving from Chicago to Wyoming (Wyotech) about 4 times next year so that is a long drive.

My question is can you guys recommend a nice setup for the car that would be fun and able to turn up and hit the track?

I was thinking of using a Rank1Racing manifold with a 14b but thought that might be too small and only help a bit. Cost is a factor in a way, as I am still in the learning stage so I want to play and tinker and once done with wyotech and done reading all these books (ESPECIALLY MAXIMUM BOOST BY CORKY BELL) I will ofcourse upgrade.

What are everyones recommendations though if possible for me. Starting with a B16 out of a 97 Vtec Del Sol. Go ahead and let me know whatever, as all knowledge is appreciated and helpful.

That is a very nice setup but I am looking for something cheaper right now. Mainly to learn on. Like right now im thinking the rank1racing manifold because of cost but maybe I can find a drag, log, or something else for under $300 that is nice. After that im looking for a nice used turbo probably. T3 or maybe like 14b/T25 not sure. Looking for ideas about that.
