Welcome to the forum! The car looks good!

How much money are you trying to spend altogether and how much power do you want to have in the end? Make goals and then go for them. Otherwise, you'll start spending money and then possibly have to go backwards.

If you want 350whp, you are looking at a turbo'd B series. D series can get you there, but will require a lot more work and money. I wouldn't push more than 300 on the stock D series sleeves. If you have 350+hp in a FWD car, you will be fighting for traction most of the time unless suspension mods and nice and wide tires are in order.
