do you have the rest of the car built up to handle what you have for a motor so far? ie: rear discs, slotted rotors, suspension, tires? also, are you building up for racing or just street? if you're gonna race, what style of racing? drag? autox?

....lots of variables to think about

cams, type r intake manifold, junkyard turbo set up, NO2, high comp pistons, titanium valves valve springs and guides. there are like a billion things to do with little money. especially with that motor. your car is just a precision tool. it can do all types of **** but what you want it to do is the real question.

defintley get in this order(probably)
1)killer camshafts.... they'll give the b16 more power(but you have to tune it)
2)jun/toda lightweight flywheel $450
3)skunk2 intake manifold
4)save up a buy a stroker kit

thats what ive been leaning towards. i can get some CTR cams at pretty good price but is there any other cams that would "dramaticaly" change the HP? without breaking the bank?? and valve springs to mach??

he wants something that isn't going to hurt the engine in the long run. he was going to do a turbo months ago, but then people kept telling him about all the little things, added expences he didn't count on and so he backed out. if he got some good cams, what else would he need to get at the time of the instal so everything ran right, and he got a good power boost.?

he has issues with NO2, says bottles are for cheaters....a zc hatch lied and raced him one night, said it was a stock zc, i told him he was spraying, when the hatch sprayed a 75 shot, and BARELY beat him, he was mad.......don't get mad shawn..
be like me...BBOOOOOOOOOOOOOSSSSTT IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

save up a little more and do a turbo or get a skunk2 mani, some of my buddies have em on their rides and it's a hella of a difference. Makes driving NA dohcs very fun.

I wouldnt pay all that money on a lightweight flywheel. I know a dude that can lighten it for you for about $75 dollars. He does it on a laser guided machine so that it doesnt have to be re-balanced. When are you going to show me what youre rex can do? I finally got my wheels and springs and **** on....cant remember if i told you. IM me some time and well talk more about the flywheel.
