Default dont know where to go next

hey fellahs i was wondering about where to go next with my ride. so far i have a b16, type r cams with a light weight flywheel and crank pulley. im going to go turbo eventually nothing crazy just like a t3 or something, i also want to increase my displacement, should i go stroker kit which already has forged parts or should i frankenstien my head with a b20 block and get the forged internals seperately. what have you seen that works best, pros and cons. i heard that there were oil cumsumption issues with stroked and bored b-series motors, how true is that. the car is for auto cross/track days but needs to be friendly enough for daily driving. spend my money what do you suggest.

if gas is an issue, i wouldn't touch the car....either route is going to set you back a few mpg.

well i don't mind trading a few mpg for some performance, im just not willing to have to gas up like every other day.
