Depends on how far your willing to go with it...

Assume both are in a coupe..

d16z6 < LS Swap
d16z6 turboed > LS swap
d16z6 with 50+ shot of nitrious > LS swap
d16z6 turbo/nitrious = LS Swap w/GSR trans
d16z6 turbo/nitrious < LS Turbo Swap
d16z6 turbo/nitrious < LS-VTEC Swap

Well if there is nothing wrong with your current setup, you could always just boost and juice it until it blows, and THEN swap. Lol

I know of a guy who goes through 5.0 engines like toilet paper. He gets one off CL cheap, throws it in with like a 250 shot, wins money at the dragstrip, goes home, drops in another 5.0, does it all over again.

I may be exaggerating the 250 shot, but I know it's alot because the motor only handles a dozen or so passes before it starts to go out.
