B16s aren't known for being built, at least for NA. He hasn't specified what he wants and is willing to spend.

why ls??? Its better for turbo cause its been seen on a dyno that with a vtec motor and boost when vtec hits it bogs the motor a little and a loss in hp so thats why i choose the ls.

Maybe because your car is slow.

Go with the LS! For boost you cant go wrong tho you will want to swap transmissions or your FD down the road. Ive seen stock internally LS's go 12's with good tuning

Yes, the b20z is the one we have in the boosted 94 teg. It is fully built (for the most part), eagle rods, crower piston, vavles and springs upgraded, and so far runs great. upgraded every fuel component. just passed the break in period, now needs to be tuned and a few custom pipes finished. overall, I think it will be a great platform for boost being the 2.0, and it's been bored.
