Default All-motor or Turbo?

I am really, really thinking about getting 94-96 Integra, either an LS or GS-R, and i was wondering which model would be best for drag? I heard that if u get the LS, go all-motor, and if u get tha GS-R, go turbo? Any thoughts? thanks!

Think of it this way:

An LS would be safer to boost, but a GS-R would make more power than an equally modded LS.

people would say the LS is better for turbo because 1) lower compression (9.2:1) than the GSR, 2) longer transmission gears than GSR. But the GSRs compression could hold boost nicely. And the transmission is better for acceleration. The only all-motor integra motor that is worth the money is the ITR motor. The rest should be boosted and that is that.
