i say that the LS/Vtec will be much more reliable and cheaper... but you will make more power with the turbo... also if you deside to go turbo i have a kit FS... https://www.tamparacing.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=41530

you can make the ls/vtec a daily driver. The ls/vtec is just as reliable like any other Honda engine. It is how ever alot more money. I would just get a ls motor and turbo it. Lots of power there to be made. ls/t.

BTW, It's not the VTEC that makes the power. It's the high lobe side of the cam. The timing increase, and the fuel maps.

Its not more money going ls/vtec can be cheaper depending on the swap, a b18c1 will run you over 3k easy. You can find a ls block, and pistons,rods bla bla pretty much everything including the vtec head for under 3k with tranny if you shop around. Plus you will make more power also
