There really is no "best" cam and header for a B16. A good plan of attack is to decide what you'll be doing most with your car, drag, road race, daily driving, track car, whatever, and research the cam and header that would benefit you most with your needs, compression, funds, etc.

Don't know much about the Mugen header but I bet it's overpriced. If you are sticking with stock compression, stage I cams will be in your area. As for header, if you are gonna spend that much get a custom 4-1. I'm going on my 2nd AN-R header now.

About 10 hp, the CTR cam has 3 degrees more duration than ITR, not sure about torque.

?
They're completely different cams.
And on his stock compression, they won't be used to their fullest potential.

Uhmmmmmmmm, I think that's great, but on 11.5:1 compression I've seen a B16 make 187 at the wheels. Not that it matters, as peak numbers don't really excite me, efficiency and using the motors upgrades to their fullest potential is more important.

129 ft-lbs of torque from a stock bottomend B16? I find that hard to believe. Even B16s putting out close to 200whp are only putting around 115 ft-lbs. 129ft-lbs sounds more like a B18 to me.
