B18 type r vs. gsr?

[MadSeen]

So I'm spending a lot of time on here and other forums doing my "homework" to figure which engine I want to use on my swap plans. Now I've hit the crossroads. This will be my daily driver about 20 miles to work and 20 miles back all highway. Plus go to school at night. Well my question is which motor tops the other, if there's ever a day I'm not working I'd like to get some speed under me. So which motor can best handle it?

The b18c5 is a straight race engine from factory. It outperforms the b18c1 anyday.

They can handle performance equally. The type R is the better motor when comparing stock vs stock or both with minor bolt ons

It also depends on what your future plans are for the engine. If you are looking to boost, the gsr has a lower compression ratio then the type r and from the research I've done the gsr is better for boost and the type r is better for an all motor build. But i could be wrong but that is what I have read on club civic and other forums.
