Default [D15B VTi] or [B18B]

ok...so i know it's a stupid question....and i know everyone's going to say go with the B18b, or rattle off some other engine i should swap in my EG3, but i though i'd just post it anyway...so here's the question:

In my EG3 i have a D15B7(70ish Hp), it's got like 270K miles, and i gonna swap this summer...I have a '90 camry right now, that i am tryin to sell...I want $2000 for the car. Should i put a D15B VTi engine in it, or should i go with the B18B....i am gonna turbo sometime within the next two years...

Would it be worth tryin to hop up the D15B with the 2G, or should i save a few mor bucks and get the B18B?

b18b x infinity

As for hopping up the d15b7... that motor is trash. Do not mod it.
