i need some input on what kind of valves i should look into???

 

how hard you gonna lean on this engine?
how high you gonna rev it? how much boost?

you dont need to go overkill on the valvetrain if you arent running high boost,(meaning high cyl temps) just use some good springs and retainers and let it eat.

f.w.i.w., im running .5mm over ferrea.

 

i just picked up some GSR camshafts, i want to do some ARP head-bolts, new headgasket, port the head, a valve up-grade. I dont have enough $ to build the block

up the boost from 10psi to 12psi, u think this is safe on a stock b16 block???

 

with the gsr cams youll be ok. keep the revs mid 8k.

 

i believe it cuts out @ 8300 rpm.

 

youll be fine.

 

so, its ok to up the boost 2psi with those mods???? (with a re-tune on the aem)

 

keep the tune on the safe side, dont spin the hell out of it, and you should be fine. what mao sensor you running? if you are using stock, you cant use boost cut. you need a 2.5 bar for that. or a 3 bar. the stock can only see 11.x and if you run 10-11 psi, there is nothing to tell when to cut for over boost.

 

im running a GM 3-bar map sensor. looking for a min of 300whp by next summer!

 

well you are in the right direction. and you can make great power on the gsr cams too. 520 lsat year with them. g/l with the build imma go post ***** in the eg forum. aint been there in a while.

 

i wish i could build the block but def dont have the 5 grand to do so. & i need some sort of project & its always good to add more power.

what should i end up doing with my valves then??
