A b16 or type-r head.

What CR are your pistons with the current head? You want to make sure that the smaller combustion chamber doesnt boost your CR too too high.

Your looking at about a .3 bump as compared to your stock head.

well, just to go turbo, you can use a built LS head. If you swap it to a b16,b18c you will need everything to make it vtec also. If I were you I would build the stock LS and boost it.... No need to have vtec and boost....unless you really want to waste the money.
