so you have supertech valves but not valve springs and retainers?

I would start building the bottom end so you can boost a lot more.

Well when we replaced the headgasket we noticed the valves were bad so we just replaced them with those.

Just wanted to tell you that you have one sweet looking sleeper. What made you want to paint the valvecover?

turn up the boost and then start do pistons, rods, etc after you crack a sleeve or something. better fuel pump too.

a shiny new bov

build the block, new pump and bigger injectors, turn up the boost.

I can't beleive no one has mentioned tuning.

I say upgrade the injectors, get a walbro 255HP, and take the car to someone who is reputable in tuning hondata.

TsujenDB1

It was street tuned when everything was put on. Im going to have dave at whip factory dyno tune it at 10psi in a few weeks.

Question : Will the dsm injectors be good with the walbro fuel pump? Or should I upgrade anyways. If so what size?

thx for everyones help so far btw

get the 255 pump and get bigger injectors, if you think you will have a built block in the future i would get 880's or 1,000's if you wanna go all out and not have to worry about them again

then easy ways to make power are crower 403's with valvetrain, get a 3 bar map sensor so you can turn up the boost, stock block you should be abe to put down 300whp pretty easily

Get the kit 'complete' first:

dsm 450's
ebay bov
iridium spark plugs

Get any other injector, a name-brand bov, and normal NGK spark plugs. Reliability is the main factor for that.

Next slap in some forged rods & pistons, maybe a valve job, refresh the seals in the head, and it should be good for 50k more HARD miles.
