Default b16a power figures

hey im hoping to have my b16a engine up and running in my ej9 lsi by summer time. i was just wondering what kind of figures ill could be making with these parts:

hks super suction induction kit
apexi n1 full exhaust system
greedy exhaust manifold
act organic stage 2 clutch kit
spoon lightened flywheel
skunk 2 pro series intake manifold
skunk 2 pro series billet throttle body
skunk 2 tuner series camshaft + ajustable cam gear
ported polished/ skimmed head
chiped ecu or entire new one (not to sure yet any ideas)

hopping to hit 200bhp + for now untill turbo kit is dropped on (after summertime if moneys are good)

Youl need management to properly tune that engine.

And I wouldnt then turbo it, as the cr will be high.

honestly you need to really think about what your going to do. you wont wanna boost that setup and if you think your going to be slow.... either a) swap for higher CR pistons and run biggers cams etc or b) build a motor for boost.

tune with crome, if they have that across the pond
with the skunk 2 cams it's highly recomended you change the valve spring and retainers, otherise you could end up with a valve float issue that usually ends with disaster
if you decide to go with the toda flywheel you might as well go with the clutch to
if tuned right i'd expect around 200-210hp at the wheels

Sell your b16 and buy a b18c4/b18c1, and boost that. Lower CR to begin with.

i was going to say waste money on doing a n/a build when you should save for a turbo, but i guess pistons and cam swap would be all you need then your turbo ****, but that setup will work great if tuned right, also you will need skunk2's valvetrain as recommended by them. I can see 180hp but good luck with the build let us know how it turns out.

you might see 200 flywheel hrose with those mods and a good tune, but expect 180ish around the wheels... less without the software ;-)

Id say realistic would be anywhere from 165 to 190 every motor is different but I doubt you will get to 200. Im thinking more on the low side 165 to 180. For a b16 though that is a respectable number.
