Which Integra engine is the best for a turbo build?

B18C5. It's the most advanced Integra engine with the best potential.

the only bad thing i see about the c5 is its high compresiond. so you cant run to many pounds of boost

True. But knowing dre, he will probably want new internals anyway. Problem solved. C1 is cheaper and has lower compression, so problem also solved.

B18a1

The LS motor is non-VTEC so you never have to worry about opening your valves even more during peak boost, and the LS block is good and strong. My friends '94 LS was running a strong 10 lbs of boost on stock internals with no problems.

^^True, but if you are swapping engines to begin with, you might as well go for broke right? And if you can force more air into the engine N/A, then you can get even more power out of a boosted engine.
