Turbo B18B1 or All Motor B16A

Hello, I am so torn between these two options. I am planning to spend $5000 or less including the price of the car. (2G MPFI CRX)
This car will be a sleeper except exaust.

I either want a B18B1 with a Garett T04E or an All Motor B16A. If I was going to go Turbo B18B1I would want something like this:
Car 1:
B18B1 Engine, Tranny, Mounts, and Axels
Better Head Gaskets (recommend a company please)
Aftermarket ECU (recommend as well)
New plugs and plug wires
Bashed-out cat for racing, and Cat-Back exaust
Custom Exaust: (unless kit is cheaper)
Garrett T04E (what size wastegate? any BOV recommendations?)
440CC Injectors
Apex'i Boost Controller
Anything else I could fit in for under 5k?

Car 2:
B16A Engine, Tranny, Mounts, and Axels
Performance ECU
Better Crank Pulley
Header, New Cat, Exaust
Cams, Retainers, Valve Spings
CAI
Anything Else?

I like the CRX's potential but I usually do Inline-6s or larger. I wont have anyproblem doing all the work myself, some of the cars I have modified include:
89 Supra TT
B18C1 pistons Del Sol
Edelbrock Turbo kit on a VTec Civic (D Series)
T76 on an R13 RX-7.
A few 305 Camaros
Two 4.6L fords (A lincoln and a mustang)
Lastly a 395 Chevelle SS
