Default Dont know what to upgrade?

I have a b16a in my 92 hatch VX. I want what everyone wants cheap HP. so far I have intake, intake manifold, 4-1 header, and an exhaust. the body style doesnt come with a/c or power steering so i guess thats a gain. I was thinking about a new Skunk2 ECU and possibly bigger cams and new valve train... anyone got any ideas?

bigger tb, next step would probably be a new fuel rail w/ a high pressure fuel pump, but you can't do much more w/o doign internals..

headwork would not be a bad idea nor would a bigger throttle body and intake manifold. however you are getting to the point where some ecu tuning such as crome would greatly benefit you.

When you say "crome" do you mean the metal or is that some sort of aftermarket ecu brand name? im a bit slow on the terms here.

LOL. CROME is a freeware tuning program. It kicks *** to say the least. Go to http://www.pgmfi.org and look around for it. It can be difficult to get it all setup and understand it, but once you do you'll be extremely happy.

Next thing I would do is get new cams and an upgraded valvetrain, as well as a larger throttle body.

I assume you're staying NA.
