A cat-back exhaust would be a good start.

OOps, I just got a dynomax muffler and a 2.5" magnaflow cat. The car already has 2.5" piping from the original B20 VTEC I have in it now. I will be installing this B16 for a while until I fix a bad smoking problem with my built B20VTEC motor. Sorry for any confusion.

stock b16's don't gain much power with an aftermarket intake mani. ctr cams would be better to his advantage.

Type r cams are gonna make MUCH more power than a IM. A P30 IM actually makes decent power, but you already knew that.

also sell that header and get something better after planning a build.

p30 intake mani would be a nice cheap upgrade but cams work well too.

Ditch that header and pick up something nicer.
Bigger cams
Hondata/Crome/Neptune management.
