Default guide me! b-series engine specs

alright guys here is the deal...tell me if this is feasable (sp?). I want a 2 liter B-series motor in my civic...end of story. I will get a 2 liter motor. I DO NOT want a CRVtec...I am not dealing with a frankenstein motor that was never meant to turn power in the first place.

So basically that leaves me with boring out a a B18C to 84mm and having it sleeved to get my 2 liter motor. Is their anything else I can do? Could I bore out a B16A to 2 liter? I plan on having my block resleeved and everything. what is the difference block wise between the B16 and B18? What crankshaft is better? Would a B16 bored to 84mm only be a 1.8 liter engine? Could I safely bore it bigger? Whats the rod/stroke of B16A? B18C?

I am asking all this because I could get a B16A block cheaper then a B18C...plus B16A heads and manifolds are just a little better cause the head flows better and the manifold doesn't have the secondary butterfly or whatever. I can't seem to find a longblock GSR motor anywhere...but I can find a B16A no problem

What setup would be better for turbo? I really want turbo...but part of me is thinking I should just go N/A...but maybe not.

but to some everything up...I want 2 liter. I DON'T want CRVtec. Tell me every single option their could be and the benefits and feasability of each.
