If you're running that engine setup, dont even consider buying a Treadstone turbo kit....what are you power goals and use for the car?

the 70/75mm ones are "racing throtle bodys"

8:1 is a little low, but it'll do. an 84mm B16. thats awesome. anyways, ditch the ignition and coil, go with stock dizzy and ngk BKR7E plugs and ngk blue wires. i'd suggest a 65mm power products throttlebody. you could even use some 84mm 9:1 CP pistons, but not a necessity. get some gs-r cams.

forget about nitrous. you're good with the hondata S300. an innovate LC-1 wideband or similar is very nice and helpful... a nice port n polish on the head would be nice, followed by a good valve job, with supertech valvesprings and retainers snapped in place. now you's movin some errr

that turbo and possibly even that manifold are gonna limit you in the 300-350 whp range when tuned properly. you'll also need a walbro 255 lph in-tank fuel pump (about 90 bucks from lightningmotorsports.com with install kit), and some ~800cc injectors (you really need some 550s for that turbo setup, then, later on when you do a lot of learning (you'll do a lot), step up to a big turbo, maybe a different turbo setup, and go with some 1000cc's

i'd love to build an 84mm B16. spin that bitch to 11,000 on about 25psi! (with mentioned valvetrain and proper tuning, of course)
