#241726 welcome to the site! I think the caps lock might have scared some people away :P
THe main question is what are you going to use the car for? is this your daily driver, gutted out drag car, auto-x car, weekend toy etc... An H series is going to put extra weight over the front, slightly decreasing your car's agility. It doesn't really matter for drag though. And if it's your only car as a taily driver, you may want to think 2x about boosting because problems will arise eventually...
As far as performance goes, either route would be an excellent choice. :thumb:

h2b is awesome, on a hatch you will have to have your hood lifted in the back.

I really really wanted to do it in my Delsol, However with the delsols I dont have the hood clearence to pull it off. If I had a Hatch I would be Rocking JDM H23 VTEC with a H2b kit and b16 EM1 Transmission.

My Sol is simliar to what your hatch duty is, Its a Track/Mountrain Run/Weekend Car. Very Rarely does it do Daily Driving, with the main exception being its a nice sunny warm day and I want to drive with no roof.
