I got an EJ6 as my daily, so my JDM B16 EF gets to be a little spoiled. I'd like to make ~250-350HP with less than $2k into the car and little harm to reliability. I don't want my fun car breaking all the time.
I'm primarily just looking for a nice even increase in power all across the board without boost or having to pull the bare block out of the car and get a bunch of machine work done.
Any ideas as to what I could do?

Nothing. You won't ever make that kind of power without forced induction or nitrous.

RIght now I would guess you put down around ~145hp if your healthy, like a stock B16. Just headwork, cams, PnP, maybe 160hp.

A B20 vtec could be the answer you are looking for. 200+ whp NA and reliable.

I've seen tons of all motor builds that rev out to nearly 10k and make around 220. That's my ideal goal as I'm also planning to do full exhaust, intake, fuel system, throttle body, and a tune

Links?

Here's a few I've seen on YouTube
Yeah some are B16B's but with as much work as I'm going to be doing the difference is mostly irrelevant

I anticipate none of those are stock bottom end. With an increase in compression and different fuel, I could see that.

Keep in mind a valvetrain that can do 10-11k rpm isn't setup to last very long. With a larger cam comes the need for more expensive oil. To me none of that sounds like a reliable daily driver.

Summer is over, go away.

Already have a daily. This is the fun car, and it doesn't need to be insanely reliable like my daily is, because I'll only be driving it semi-regularly on the weekends or for late night highway pulls.
