 Also, I think the USDM motor are underrated at 160. They always dyno quite strong for a 160hp motor and I think 170 is closer. They have slightly more agressive cams and a better intake manifold design than the 160hp 1st gen.

well money really isnt that big of an issue since i will be building the engine of the next 4-6months... So just a good engine that i can tune up. Also be able to take it to the track and have a quick track car.

Re: What engine is the logical build up?
honestly I would get a B16a, way cheeper, plus its Cable, If you want some more juice, build an LSVtec....excellent bang for buck.
Im building a 12.5:1 B18a, and its not worth it....I'll probably be about $1500-1800 for just then engine once its done.
