Default B20VTEC or D16-T?

Can I get some feedback on what swap you guys would go with. Turbo D16 or a B20VTEC?

Im thinking at the end of it they would come out to around the same price.

I like the turbo D16 idea cause I love the look of an intercooler and the sound of a bov, but I dont like the lag and I do most of my hard driving from 0-80 kph. I dont drive faster then 130kph ever.

Now the B20VTEC. I like this setups bottom end power, this is what Im looking for, something that will jump off the line. But Iv heard a few people say the sleeves are cracking left and right on them. I would only run 11.5:1 comp in it. Plus, am I ever going to get traction or is it just driver ability on that one?

Thanks guys.

If you get a small turbo that is ballbearing, you won't even notice the lag. I have a gt28r, that could easily make 250 whp on my d16 and right now at 170whp it spools pretty fast at low rpm's
