B18a or B20z? in CRX Si
 
Since i ---- my D16 motor up driving around with no oil. I was wondering what is a better choice of motor for being turbocharged in the long run.

I'd say go with another single cam. Seeing since you don't like driving around with oil in the car. It will be cheaper in the long run if you stay with the D. ;D

avoid the b20 unless you put new sleeves in it.

They're called idiot lights for a reason. Only idiots rely on them else they end up with blown motors. Learn your lesson and move on. My personal opinion is that unless you're building a motor for over 400 hp, stick with D series. B's are too expensive unless you're going for serious power. It's a simple cost/benefit analysis for me. I can build a turbo D series engine that will walk a Non boosted B for cheaper than it costs to swap in a B.
