any B for sure a D. But it all depends on your goals. You have to be more specific

Not many options without getting another motor. A decent d series can be had for next to nothing, and a b series for not much more. A 1.3 if gas efficiency at its best, not made for power.

if u just want a little more power, get another single cam(d16y7,d15b,d16z6), and boost it.

i just bought these springs for my LSi - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... K:MEWNX:IT

they seem a decent and are a good make :) and apperently by lowerig 40mm you dont need to buy new shocks etc, where as with 60mm you do, i found these were the cheapest way to lowering mine instead of buying cheapy adjustable ebay coilovers :)
