Default b20 v-tec or gsr

Ok i need some advice form some ppl who know what they are talking about.. unlike the punks in my neighbor hood who are all talk and never did a swap in there life.

I can pick up a fully built b20 vtec all recipts ,je pistons,rods,11.5 compression, ported & polished type-r head no miles on the motor, for 2500 (i think thats a really good deal)

Or i can get a gsr long block for 1300 and build it all my self and i am looking to build the gsr about the same that the b20 is allready built to

Which one would you think would be a better daily driver yet still be nice and fast to spank ppl on the way to work

and how much hp differance do you think there will be?

For the value, buy the b20. If you going to resleeve the gsr and then build it up, it should perform better than the b20 but you will definitely spend more than $2500.
