Yup, you got it. Fun and reliable
The whole reason I went with the B18b was because it was my DD, I could run 87 gas, and I could get a way newer, better condition motor. Plus, if I wanted to, this motor has the lower compression needed in case I did go Turbo/supercharger.
More people seem to suggest going the supercharger route, as it's my daily driver. Kinda crappy in one hand, because the choices are limited at best with the s/c. Looks like Vortech is my best bet, but I've heard that these are super loud! Not always a bad thing, but I don't know anyone personally thats had one. I poked around you tube, but it's still tough to gauge the noise...
