D15B vs D16z6.......experts plz?

hey.... a friend of mine wants to swap his current carby 1.5(95 civic) motor to one of these engine..... he basically wants to keep the car NA for now... basic stage-1 stuff would be done...

I have "heard" that d15b has a more agressive v-tec than the d16...even though the hp figures are more or less similar....which motor would be a better swap? considering the performence factor....

thanks
