Default Need advice for building a solid valvetrain...

Hey, I was looking to build a strong yet reliable valvetrain for B16a2. I was wondering if anyone had any advice or stories(good or bad) for specific products. I was looking to put down 210+ on a dyno without spending much more than $2000-2500. I was thinking about Toda spec B, but hate the price. I was also considering JUN, Honda OEM, Spoon, Skunk2, basically anything that will make my neighbor with a stock s2000 see my taillights Thanks for the help!

Great thanks for the help, also does anyone have any advice for what not to do when doing headwork? Like what I should stay away from. A friend told me cams+cam gears, and headwork on an engine that is not balanced/blue printed/knifed crank, can throw off harmonic balance, any experiences?
