Re: buyer's advice needed

I hate to be a bother, but I'm still thinking about it. I have a more complete mod list now, and a couple more questions.
Mods:
b18b (57,000 miles)
gs-r transmission (70,000 miles)
Skunk2 short shifter
AEM cai
Tenzo R catback exhaust
Comptech lowering springs
Tenzo R 17" wheels
Exedy stage 1 clutch
Factory lightened flywheel
Hondata s200
Crossdrilled brake rotors
A-arms from another honda (teg I think)
upper and lower front strut bar
rear strut bar
anti-roll bar from another honda (again, I think a teg)

The main other car I'm considering is a gs-r. How does this compare in handling/acceleration? Discount the 17" wheels, as I will probably sell them and put 15s on. Does high 15s still sound accurate with these mods and somewhat-sticky 15s? Some more questions:
What kind of times can I get out of this car NA without modding the internals (except maybe cams)? Will any turbo kit that fits an integra ls fit this, and will I have to mess with the s200 if I add boost? Will I have to ditch it entirely? Any opinions on this vs. a gs-r?

Thanks for putting up with my nagging, it's just that I don't take the purchase of a car lightly. And my apologies in advance for digging up a dead thread.

My honda may have less displacement than your coke bottle, but I'll race your coke bottle for $1000. Who says there's no replacement for displacement?
