Default Engine choice?

I was trying to get opinions on what i should put in my integra. Im deciding between a type r swap or just boost my current b18b. I want reliability because its going to be my only car soon. I like the way type r's drive and they are really fun to drive. I know the turbo ls would be faster but i dont really care about that. I just want a fun car to drive and enjoy. I figure with some cams and other bolt ons it will be an enjoyable ride. any ideas are welcome. Thanks

if you're not concerned about top speeds, ITR engine is the way to go. Its high-revs, peaky motor, and LSD make it a VERY fun car to drive around.

Turbo, running low boost. It's cheaper too.

Besides, a blown B18B is cheaper to replace then a blown B18C5, just in case you have a little "accident."
