1st gen: what 4 port 13b should i get?

As the title says, this is for a 1st gen.

I'm researching 4 port 13b's which i'm goign to turbo. I'm wondering what type i should get, as well as what type of port job.

The car i guess is a weekend warrior, though i have never raced it. I walk or ride my bike around town, but wheni drive my car i love to drive it and drive it fast.

I'm looking for as close to bolt-in as possible, with as few custom fab's needed as possible.

Thanks

Geoff

If you just want to drop one in and turbo it why not just get one of the T-II engines. Just swap the front cover with the 1st gens and re-route the turbo oil return line. You'd also need the oil pan from a GSL-SE. There would be some things to worry about in the tranny as well unless you use an aftermarket flywheel.

S5 TII engine would be the best choice for you.
Bridgeport it of course But really, why not? It's a weekend warrior and not your daily driver. Some people (like me) argue that b-port is fine for a daily driver, but not many argue that it's a race only port.
