just slapping a vtec head on a b18a is meh at best.
I would boost, b18a's take boost well b/c of their lower compression ratio. There are people who've built b18a's for N/A but it takes a lot of money.
Lsvtecs when built properly make pretty impressive numbers for a 1.8L.
You could always squeeze. N20 is a good, relatively inexpensive way to get a bunch more power.
Telling your insurance company that you put a turbo/nitrous on your car is a good way to get an increase in your rate.

i know **** all all i know is that it pushes air into your motor increasing the preasure inside the chamber be4 it gets compressed buy the movement of the motor
i would need 2 get the car dino tuned after that ???

you'll need a bunch of things if you want to turbo, such as a turbo kit, bigger exhaust, bigger injectors, tuning (custom chip) a good clutch that can handle the power, sticky tires so they don't just spin.
