Default Adding more TQ to a B16A 1st gen.

I got a 500 dollars budget to spend on my B16A first gen. What upgrade should i get to get the best possible TQ?!

Note: I'll be buying used parts.

buy a b18 block, the only real way you are going to see some torque on a 1.6 is ITB's, which are going to cost a lot more than 500...

ur cheapest way to get more power is to juice that lil b16. build a cheap *** turbo kit or get a b18 block slap those drop those b16 pistons (if their still good) in the block along with the b16 head though u'll get more power with some juice or boost

B18C block = better torque, better power
B16A head = better flow

B18C block + B16A head = ******* awesome motor whether it's NA, boosted, or juiced.
