Greetings, Off the shelf parts that i would recomend that would work well would be the Skunk2 ultra street manifold 74mm Throttle body and the new Skunk2 plenium spacer for more volume! and the skunk2 mega r header would be a good pic.
remove said b20 vtec and replace w/ a k20 or k24 lol, but seriously those header's terrible, should be top of your list, as well as an sk2 ultra. But all this has been already stated. Honestly i would prob just sell the swap and go k series, you're really not gonna squeeze much more power out and you will end up spending wayyy more than its worth for the slightly extra hp.

I will have to agree and disagree, A K swap will be funner fast and have more potential but its gonna cost way!!!! more to even get the swap done then what it will take to replace the weak links in your setup.
Your weak links i would say would be the exhaust manifold, intrake manifold and throttle body and intake. Slap the ultra manifold on, a ported one from 4 piston would be even better used with the new plenuim spacer! go with a 70-74mm throttle body, go with a go autoworks 3'' cold air intake or a AEM or Injen 3" cold air intake And retune.
What was your duty cycle on the prelude injectors?
what exhaust setup are you running?
Are you using a cat convertor? test pipe?
2.5" or 3" exhaust piping?
I think you have much more potential in the engine and just by those parts i mentioned you can easily increase the power and performance you already have. If your pockets allow of course theres other alternatives such as engine swaps like Hybrid K series and J series but im a guy who loves the B series! and theres pletty of us around who are still making great results with the B despite the spike in K series support. If i had the money yes id go K series but its still so damn pricey! The k pro for example is stupid expensive compared to say the Hondata S100 that i still use to this day on my Boosted B series.

aren't those intakes known to have a power dip associated with them? maybe best off with a 3 inch or 3.5 intake tube. if you can dyno tune the length it would be best bet

Hi!
Due to the dollar swap K-series is much more expensive that tune my b20vtec )

it's not as much as you may think, even if you pay for a shop to do it. I currently have a jdm b18c w/ lsd with basically all the bolt ons, its coming out this winter for a k24a2. I am doing the swap right, no hack stuff, pretty much all k tuned stuff, with a k pro and dyno tuned, all said and done gonna be around 9-10k..... but then i sell all of my b series stuff and i have a ton
How get more power b20vtec
