B18c1 n/a build advice
I have a 2000 gsr b18c1 that is completely oe everything. Going to do a n/a build. 3k is the budget. Would like some advise on parts and starting points to start this build. Also going to be throwing another 2k into later but 3k is what is going to be spent right now. Looking for a least 200hp but as always more the better if the budget allows it. I do not want to turbo I want to stay with n/a. It will be dd every day.

you can reach 200whp or just under for 3k(if done right) the 2k later could be used for port + polish 5 angle VJ and milling the head. what i did was bolt on + skunk2 tuner 2's(head was milled to get right comp). should reach 200 or just under. but before you start what's the comp on you'r engine ? don't start if there's something wrong(low comp in one cyl)

Def do LOTS of research in the forum..Since you already have a great platform in the 00 B18C1 to start with and tranny... I would def pick up a nice set of cams,cam gears and at an upgraded valvetrain.. A nice header and Vstack to it..although I $3k is a tight budget to reach your goal of 200 HP especially if you don't have any bolt-ons yet?!

intake-30-200
Inake mani+TB: 350.00
exhaust:250-600
cams:400-600
springs+retainers:350
tune:200+/- 50
he'd be close assuming his comp is above 200 in all 4 cyl(newer motor). he's be there or close enough that the 2k later would push him to his goal or just over with what i had suggested in my OP. of course you could be dumb and run ebay parts to "TRY" and cut costs but the trouble you'll face is not worth it that list is assuming brand name items

Re: B18c1 n/a build advice
yea you're right just right around the budget and his goals..I also agree to get quality parts first avoid junky used items or items in unknown condition..Although I would caution the OP to also factor in items you would not also consider to your budget "maintenance" such as any new oil pumps/water pumps/belts/bushings/mounts filters ets cause it does add up.

Complete com tech gasket kit top and bottom. Apr rod and head studs. Gates timing belt. Jdmpassword intake. Htech header. Magnaflow converter and muffler with 2.5 piping.

You can't run Skunk pro's on stock GSR comp you'll need around 12 atleast(head milled). I wouldn't try the whole thin HG+Flat valves way. you'll need skunks PRO valves+retainers(500) to run those cams you'll also need to degree them in. everything else sounds good tho.
