LS/VTEC turbo, or GSR turbo.

I was going to suggest that :(

If you do an LS/VTEC though, make sure to do it properly if you want it to last.

ls/vtec is a b18a b18b with a vtec head. The b18a/b has a bit more stroke then a gsr b18c. How much boost? b16 stock + e85 have been pushed to about 18ish you need a good tune and when something goes wrong it goes way wrong.

The stock b18a/b and the b20 have less compression if that is what you are looking for. Any d16 is a good choice except the z1.

i can say right now that d series is prolly not an option for him right now since its a stock b series car lol

i recomend not going b20 for boost unless you are going to sleeve it the reason why is the fact that the cylenders do not have individual sleeves like the other motors do its all one solid piece in the b20 and they crack very easily or in other words it wont last long

if you are going for longevity i would do an ls vtac and use arp hardware everywhere and if leaving stock internals use low boost lets say 12psi or lower

im guessing that your integra is an ls which means that you should just use that motor do a rebuild aka rings, bearings, water/oil pump, timing belt and then slap a small turbo on it and get a very good dyno tune and have fun
thats just my 2cents
good luck
