I am wondering what are the best pipes to use, aluminum, steel, maybe even carbon fiber? Second, I am thinking about going with the edelbrock setup for intake manifold, and throttle body. I need some advice on the piping, and some feedback on the intake manifold/throttle body setup. Thanks

Goals: Stock 30k miles jdm d15b motor dead STOCK ~ 250hp at crank

I am thinking with a hondata s300, an advanced electronic boost controller, low impedience 550 injectors, aftermarket fuel rail, FMU, walbro fuel pump "ect." I can properly tune an efficient reliable 9 psi streetable EF

I already got the d15b vtec up in it right now but my dx tranny is so slowww lol I will change that once I dump a clutch at the track (lol @ dx and stage 1 stock oem clutch, and HEAVY *** flywheel setup

 

As far as the piping, Mild steel is cheap and works great, if you want it to look good just paint the piping. You can go aluminum but it will oxidize over time and turn a different color, plus its more expensive then mild steel. Finally stainless steel will never rust and looks good, but wont again quite expensive. If you run hondata s300 you will not need a FMU. 250hp has been done on a stock block SOHC, but i wouldnt drive it daily at those boost levels. Other then that your set up seems ok, good luck
