GSR with turbo or Type R with N2o whats the better swap

[Raceready68]

I am trying to deside on which swap to do on my 93 civic hb . I am looking for some help from people who have done swaps.I am considering The type R swap more but I am not to sure about it on the highway.If I go with the type r I will be porting the head and putting in stage 3 jun cams and valve train and individual throttle bodys with a 60 shot form NX. If I go with the gsr I will just slap on a turbonetics kit for $3500. Lets here some opinions. This car will be used at the track and the street/ highway.It will mostly just be used while I wait for my JDM cars to come in as they sell.

gsr > c5 when you take into account the extra $$$ the c5 costs.

Also any one with a Type R b18c5 can you give me some rpms for doing 120km/h on the highway. I will be running 225/4516 kumho mxs if i can fit a 225 on my civic

I am also loooking at the fact that the type r has a 8900 redline stock and with jun cams and valve train can push over 10,000rpms on a stock bottom end

If you can afford the Type-R route you mentioned

Imagine the sheer enjoyment of hearing those throttle bodies scream at 9000rpm.

Granted there would be faster options, but you should consider the enjoyment factor. BOV's might sound cool in a ricey sort of way, but the smile from those TB's...I'd be making constant road trips to Vancouver and back with that.
