What do you guys think i should do, i know headers, CAI, and cat-back, but should i upgrade cams? pistons? pulleys??

 

Upgrade your suspension first, then go into the motor...

 

im planning on lowering it a little bit and getting some struts but i am more concerned with speed at the moment, ie 1/4 so suspension really isn't the top of my list, its second, lol

thanx though

 

I really depends on what your ultimate goal is. Do you plan on going N/A or Turbo? Set a goal, and then work towards it.

 

im planning on going NA

 

Would you be keeping the same bottom end or go LS/Vtec?

 

I too have a B16A and want to keep it NA. My cars suspetion is set-up for Auto-X and my mods are sowly coming in this order:

*CAI
*FPR and gauge
1. Adj Cam gears**
2. ITR IM**
3. '01 ITR/CTR Cams
4. Header--exaust
5. ECU chipped or Hondata.


* On car
** Have but not on yet
Just my .02

 

i am putting in a b16a1 and just want to get a little power out of it, it is only going to be in for about a year, maybe more, i am going to start building up a ls/vtec next summer. I just want to get some power out of the b16 while i have it in there. What are some big power adders minus FI and nitrous

 

are you rich?..why would you build up a motor just so you can put in a different motor?

 

Then get might as well do up the head since you're gonna go with an Ls/Vtec set-up...

 

IMHO,

You should build suspension, exhaust, brakes, wheels/tires, then get to motor.

hmm, how about a B20 bottom end?

lol, but seriously, just get a very good aftermarket cam/valvetrain package and an intake... like Toda SpecB or Skunk2 Stg1 or JUN II and a CAI. if you can do it, save up and get a serious cam package... Spec C or stg2 or JUN III but those require valvetrains and definitely require tuning that will be serious money as well.
