advice on my build
my setup is a 99 si. my b16a has the following....
eagle crank
eagle rods
arp bearings
wiseco 9.5:1 pistons
stock sleeves
stock IM
stock header
aem intake
and apexi exhaust
the head has
skunk 2 valve springs and retainers
ferria valves
skunk stage 2 turbo cams
skunk 2 adjustable cam gears.
i wanna get it up to around 185 to 200 hp. im about to order the skunk 2 black series IM and weapon r headers and tune it with a s200. my question is is there anything i should change about this setup or any advice you guys can give me to get some extra horsepower out of it? and also ill be needing new pistons and cams since im not going turbo anymore. any suggestions on what would work well for this set up?

Do a little more search on what intake manifold will properly help you out, screw that Weapon R header (no "s"), and get a better header. I would suggest an RMF, RMF replica, or Hytech replica. People will talk **** because they are "knockoffs," but they still outflow anything in $250 price range. Sell the pistons, hell even the piston/rod combo, and get some JDM B16A pistons. You have no need for forged internals, and cannot use stock pistons on those rods. If you keep the rods, get some pistons to net you around 12:1 cpr. A nice set of cams like Skunk2 Pro 2's will aid you. You should be around 200whp MAX, and probably won't see anymore.
Why would you use "turbo cams?"
Times have changed.. name brands mean ****.. you need to do alot more research on whats "proven".. name brand exhaust systems.. choke up motors..
...read up new one.

i bought the motor from a buddy of mine that was going to turbo it but i decided i didnt wanna go turbo anymore so i figured id change some parts on it. most of the parts were in it when i bought it.
Use the search function.
