      Theres way too many variables to consider. First of all, Horsepower is Horsepower regardless of what engine it is. You could have a sohc turbo walk on a GSR turbo if properly built. I guess what I am getting at is what are your power goals? Is this gonna be a daily driver or a weekened warrior?
      If you want a clear cut answer, I would recommend going LS Turbo, the cylinder walls on a B20 are thin and not suitable for boost. Although you get more displacement with the B20, they are more commonly and IMHO better off as N/A engines. Im assuming that you wont be sleeving the block, which is why I recommend the LS over the B20. Again, PSI is irrelevant hence why we need to know your power goals. What turbo are you planning on using?
      If you want to prevent "BOOM" then don't cheap out on this build, sleeve the block, and buy quality products, not that ebay garbage, and make sure you TUNE the car. I cant emphasize how important a tune is. PM me if you have any further questions.
