What must be done to add a 75 shot to a B18C1?
My friend is looking to add a 75 shot to his 93 h/b (B18C1).
The engine has a Type R exhaust cam, headers, short ram intake, and cat-back. He's about to get an AEM c/a/i for it this week as well as the Skunk2 intake manifold.
He was told by another friend that all he needs to upgrade besides the manifold is add a fuel rail. Probably going to pick up an AEM fuel rail sometime soon if needed.
Will that be about all he needs or should he look into other parts before adding the bottle?
Also, is it difficult to install the skunk2 intake manifold? From the picture I saw it looks pretty simple. He said there are a few wires attached to the manifold on now, but I think it would pretty much be unhook the existing one and add the skunk2 and just put the wires back in place like the original.
Thanks for any help on this!!

Leave the fuel rail alone. The stock are good for 300 WHP.
Upgrade the fuel pump. so that it can maintain the fuel pressure required on "boost"
