Default JDM D15b VTEC turbo or JDM H22a

Ok I have around $3500 and IDON'T want to go any B-series.I was wanting to do either a STOCK JDMD15b Vtec LSD tranny with Garrett SC-61 turbo, FMIC,Blitz BOV, 3"exhaust etc.just basically a custom turbo setup running about 8 p.s.i on a really good Hondata street tune.OrshouldI go for a STOCK JDM H22a LSD trannywitha clutch/flywheel, I/H/E?

This would be going in a EG.

JDM H22a is going to cost me $2900 for everything, entire swap, motor mounts, axles, shifter/shift linkage etc.

Or I could buy a new JDM D15b VTEC for $800 and custom turbo it

Which Should I do?!?!?

Pro's and Con's if you'd like as well.

the D is going to be easier to swap . The h22 is going to need some other misc. stuff on top of the cost of mounts. For 3500 you could build a d and turbo it compared to the h22, where you might luck up and be able to afford i/h/e after the swap is complete

H22 definitely, just make your own BOV sounds when you shift, your friends will love it.

JDM H22a from street imports.

they'll provide you everything you need, including new axles, header and motor mounts.

all for $2,500 or less.
