Default Leave Standard or Engine swap

Howdy,
Bought this EF3 Si DOHC last night. The interior is immaculate. Front bumper has a tiny scuff and the spoiler on the back window needs to be done cause of its age. Very happy with it. It even has a sun roof. Its a jap model and the guy I bought it off did all the niggly bits that need to be done (rubber seals etc) - He works for Honda! Just NCT'd too.
Gonna get her buffed up and she should look the job. Took a quick pic this morning on the way out (tis still dirty) but I'll put a better pic up once she is looking right.

SOULD I LEAVE IT STANDARD?? - or go B18??

Heres the pic!

Keep the original engine and either turbo/supercharge.
The d16 engines are solid underated engines

Like the lads say keep the original & tune it. Maybe upgrade the chassis & brakes first.
