Default $1500 to spend

$1500 to spend on getting my eg hb vx jdm b18c swap. I've got 2.5'' straight pipe, rc310 cc injectors, hks drop in filter. So what can i get for the most bang for the buck. I want to maintain reliability and daily driverness. So please recommended what headers, what mf, etc. I'm really a newb when it comes to hondas. I use to have a vr6 and the aftermarket was much smaller and easier to decide on. Thanks in advance

well seeing as he is in the all motor forum id say he doesnt want to do that

id say best bang for buck on that budget would be a skunk 2 intake manifol and a bigger throttle body with a good set of cams

Headwork is where the power is made...Id go "mild port" w/ some good cams/springs and get it tuned w/ hondata/uberdata or something cheap and effective....

u have a great bottom end just need some head parts
1500 i dont know about u but i could easy do a fully built head for that
maybe even have enough for a good fuel managment
1500 is enough to run quick enough for DAILY DRIVER
