not like it really matters, i don't think the avg lifespan of a 2.3/2.4 is 100k miles in built form.
The reason they don't last isn't because of them being a 2.3 or 2.4, its because usually they are pushing a shit load of HP. I bet if you put a 14b on it and ran 11psi with minimal mods it would last a long time.

I would definetly do a 2.4 though, cheaper, easier.
