I am a Canadian citizen on a B2 visa in the States and it expires on 17th July.   
I have a business incorporation that I have registered in the States. I need to be in US for 6 more months. I have an investment for the business amounting to $100,000. I have a question:  
Should I extend my B2 visa or apply for business visa E2?  
Can I extend my B2 visa? Would there not be a conflict since I have a business registered now?  
If I go for E2, and apply for that but the result does not come till the expiry date of my B2, can I still stay in US on maintained status since my application for E2 is in process or do I have to leave for Canada?

I think your main problem is that a B does not allow you to work so you may well have no options.

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
