Decisions decisions.

Alright guys (and the occasional girl), there comes a time in every car's life, where decisions have to be made.
I'm getting a little tired of bolt ons, and the engine mileage is getting up there. Going to college, and having scholarships, I am able to get student loans and put some extra toward my car.
Here's the thing though: I need some input (pros and cons, what you think would be cooler, whatever) on what to do for the swap. I was quoted on an h23 for 850 dollars, and I've been seeing h22s go for a little over a grand more (that's ~2000 for all you math illiterates).
I want to bring it to a level that contends with most V8 domestics and V6 imports. I was thinking h23 turbo, or h22 all motor. I'm also looking for a decent resale value as well.
What do you guys think? If there's any questions, ask. Put in your :2cents: good or bad.

i vote for H22. 40 more HP than the H23, same TQ. You would have alot more fun with that then a H23. Yea i know it might cost a little more but i think its worth it. Then later on down the road, boost it. Just my :2cents:
