which engine is more capable

what motor is more capable the non mivec or the mivec
im torn to whether i rip out my non mivec and slap in a mivec or not.
planned mods in N/A
exhuast (extractors, punched cat, straight pipe)
already have a intake
bored out throttle body
larger injectors (notsure if worth doing as read ftos are already way overdone)
light weight crank pulley
light weight flywheel
piggy back
also want to leave the turbo option open for later, ive read that the gr is much easier to turbo the mivec.
from memory i think mivec has leaning out issues when turbo.
also how much boost can stock internals handle? i think one of the guys on here is running 9psi on a gr engine with around 155kw atw.
cheers
