Default D16 performance without turbo

I was wondering what exactly i should do to my D16 i am thinking about getting my head ported (does anyone know how much it cost to get my head ported) and getting a skunk2 racing cam and and skunk2 intake manifold i ordered a aem V2 air intake system. I want my car to be quick and still be a daily driver. What exactly should i do and pricing?

well if you dont wanna boost and you already have an intake ordered, you will need to get a good header and exhaust before you even think about getting a cam..I would get all these things...Intake, Header, Exhaust, Intake Manifold, and Bigger throttle body, just take care of all the main bolt on's before you start doing internal things...Otherwise just save all the money you would spend on bolt ons and just get a b16.

another good way to speed up the car is to change the final gear ratio, but I still have to find that mod..

NOS!!!! .... You can use it "whenever" you need that power boost.. yet save it for when you dont. AND even if you have a built motor in the future you will always have your NOS set up laying around. there was a guy selling a full WET kit for about 230 IIRC... pretty cheap imo
