Have you dona anything about suspension? A nice set of springs and shocks would make a world of difference in handling.

regarding the hp, does anyone have any ideas on what it would be?, would type r cams work well?

CTR cams would be a nice touch, along with some sprockets and an FPR & VAFC to fine tune it. As far as estimated HP, hard to say, every motor is different, if I had to guess, I'd say maybe 155-165 at the wheels?

b16's respond well to a good intake manifold if im not mistaken. CTR cams would be cool as well. what are you looking for out of the car. 155-160 is probably where you are at

get rid of that suspension...my friend had neuspeed race springs on tokico blues and said it handled like ***...he said my car with arospeed coilovers and stock struts handles better than his car did with his neuspeeds (don't know why but thats what he said)

if u have 1,800 go for a better suspension setup like skunk2 coilovers and tokico illuminas, or if you dont mine spending a grand TEIN makes some of the best full coilovers on the market...

if you're happy with ur suspension setup...i'd recommend some CTR cams and pistons, and a skunk2 intake manifold

i highly doubt that he is putting 155-160 whp down with a stock b16a2 (160 flywheel hp stock) and bolt-ons. He might be making 135-140 whp IMO and I could be dead wrong if he dyno'd it, but that's what my guess is.
