Question New Setup???

Need some idea's for a new setup now that the LS is outta the crx.. remember guys, im ballin on a budget, a very TIGHT budget.. lol, i was thinkin 1 of these 3 things:

1. another LS (b18a1)
2. b16 (i love revving motors, hence the reason the LS is gone)
3. b20 (ive heard lots of good stuff about these motors, but im rev happy)

if anyone else has some suggestions that arent thousands of bucks to do, lmk and ill take it into consideration

well i dont like motors that run out of power around 7k... so im a pretty big fan of b series vtec motors... b16 is one of the only cheap ones, and it can be made fast with not much..

B18B1
Crower Stage 2's w/ valvetrain
Skunk2 Intake Mani
AEM SRI or CAI
DC 4-2-1 Header
KEEP THOSE ITR PISTONS YOU HAVE NOW
Good catback exhaust (thermal r&d, apex'i)
bump up your fuel pressure a lil
RC 310CC injectors
and maybe even a small 60 shot of juice

you will have a monster on your hands.

ps. if you want to rev high, get a girdle and be done with it, best of both worlds.

newsflash man, b16's run out of power around 7600, LS all the way man, you need torque, i thought we already discussed this.
