Default Building my head...questions before purchasing

Here goes...Ive got to replace my blown valve seals, so i figure to build my head somewhat.

-Since im removing the head, Ive decided to buy a new head gasket...what would be a good one to go with? Mugen? OEM?

-Here are my following choices...Skunk 2 valvetrain, cam gears, my stock gsr cams, a new head gasket. Im going to follow up with a JDM 4-1 header, hi flow cat, Skunk2 IM, OBD1 coversion with Skunk2 P28. Tuned with a VAFC, Im looking for ~225 whp hopefully.

Any ideas, suggestions or comments before i drop 3 grand? lol

Full 2.5" exhaust into an n1 muffler
skunk2 IM, cam gears, valvetrain
chipped 28 with skunk2 prog

Your not going to make over 200whp without these 3 things 1. An awesome header 2. Camshafts 3. Port/Polish head, hondata would also help you. There is no need for the fuel rail.

I like the way it looks

But yea i see what you mean, I think I might go with the p&p job on the head, the header is going to be a dc sports jdm 4-1
