It's just which is better for me.

I want good throttle response and good power, nothing HIGH BOOST, just wanna run around 400ish H.P. Maybe even 370 h.p

Buy a gsr motor!! easier to tune, you will probably get closer to 400hp with that block than a type R block both running with stock internals just do to the C/R!!

What engine do you have now? If you already have a GSR, just rebuild it with forged internals. Much better option for boost.

depends on how much you want to spend and how much power you want to make.

you can do an oem rebuild and only cost you $1-2k. or do a complete performance rebuild and cost you $2-4k+.

Forged pistons & rods, Bore & hone for a fresh surface. At the same time, replace the valve guides, stem seals, and all other gaskets. Looking at around 2k. You could easily make 400+ WHP

You obviously do not live close to mexicans and Tijuana.

$6,000 for ITr motor! That is insane.
