As far as I know, It's mainly the cams. I've heard that they have a better oiling system too, though I can't verify that.

anyone else know anything, i have access to many stock b series parts, well basically anything but R parts, so any parts from the newer b16's or gsr's that would make this motor run stronger

The extra power mainly comes from the extra compression, cams, and throttle body. The 2nd gen also utilizes a lot more billet parts, like the fuel rail and oil spray bars (cam).
