how much money do u want to spend?.. and more importantly what whp goals do you want? for a bone stock b16 i would aim for around 220-230whp. I've seen much higher but if you want a reliable DD you should start doing some internal work at that point. I have a walboro 255lph. they run for about 80-90 bux with the kit on the HT forums nowadays. as for management.. with that setup you'd be fine on like a hondata s200.. w/boost of course.. amke sure u get the boost option lol.. I've run it before with no complaints other than finding tuners. .. um im not sure what this means...<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by MR.NOOLCRAFT &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote"> what else would i need to upgrade on as far as a fuel pump</TD></TR></TABLE>
do you mean other than the fuel pump?.. if so.. definately need injectors.. depending on hp goals maybe like 330 or 440s. get some good cold plugs like brk70E .. i think thats the right model.. u might wanna double chek that. make sure ur exhaust is adequet size?.. um.. start with that ?

Ehhh...I've tuned many B16's to 300+ that were absolutely reliable. I don't think 300whp (inertia) is pushing your luck at all.

For fuel, look at Xenocron's fuel pump....it works, and it's cheap. 78 bucks shipped.

Management options are plenty for you. Crome is easy to get started, and finding a reliable Crome Tuner who uses CromeGold shouldn't be too hard. There's also Hondata, ECtune, and Neptune. All are affordable and capable of handling your needs.
