If you plan on a turbo, get a GSR engine and put sleeves in the cylinders and change the valves and the valve springs before you drop it into your car. If you are getting the turbo for the blow off sound, its not a good idea at 7psi. It not gonna have enough pressure to make those cool noises. Oh here is another idea, you can always but a spoon or a mugen built b18. They are good NA engines. I'm not sure if they are street legal though, but there are always loop holes for those situations. good luck on your car

nah..man...there is heaps between a B18C1/2/3 and a B18C4/5 spec-R..
the ITR engine has bigger throttle body..port and polsihed intake manifold and cylinders..better headers..much better camshafts..higher compressions better pistons..ITR engine is so much mroe better then GSR..and that's why the JDM B18C5 Spec-R engine is liek 205hp..
there is a lot of things that a B18C1/2/3 have to do to make it to 205hp all motor..but of coz...the GSr motor has the bette potential to doing it up...but will cost more..
