Default Immmmm stumped

So, I have a 96 sol si....I have some parts for a turbo project but im not sure if I wanna turbo the y8....I want to have a 12 second street car...Would the cheaper and better way to achieve this be a b series swap, or should I throw some money in the y8? I need opinions...
Thanks

Yes, the B-series would make it 100 times easier

Thinking of going with a nonvtec b18b so I dont have to worry about vtec screwing up (oil squiters, etc.) and running 12 psi on the street 20 on the track (built engine).....Sound good

Del Slos are pretty heavy, I'm sure you already know this, check out honda-swap for the exact weight. I have one :-)

Dont bet on it... Del Sol's are pretty heavy. I know because I have one...

But yea a B-series would be SO much easier to hit 12seconds, but you'll need about >280hp to the wheel, which is doable with a built LS... =)
