I was thinking about doing a street/budget all motor setup with my 2000 GSR and have been doing some research. Here's what I've been considering.

Buddy Club Spec III + Cams
Omni-Power Valve Train
JDM ITR header
JDM ITR pistons
DIY CBR ITBs
Fujitsubo 2.5in Exhaust
ACT 6-puck/HDPP clutch
Fidanza Flywheel
ITR LSD

all tuned with a Hondata...

I was looking to do about 200whp on pump gas. I'm also considering some mild headwork to get those #s. Some of those parts like the exhaust and clutch I already have. Just trying to get some feedback as far is how attainable my HP goals are with the given setup and if there is any incompatiblities with any of the parts. Any feedback or comments welcome that pertain to my question. Thanks in advance

 

Well, in this reasearch you've done, why have you chosen the Buddy Club SPec III cams? And, why Omni valve-train?

Also, what CR are you aiming to be at, and what are the specs on those cams?

Reason being, there is nothing to "ram" the air into your engine with an ITB setup. They strictly rely on the piston creating a low-pressure area when at BDC. This is also going to have to work well with your intake cam timing/overlap.

Also, is the JDM ITR header going to be enough, or is it going to keep you from making horespower?

Just some food for thought...

200whp is attainable...but not easy, or cheap.

 

From what I've been reading, BC cams are a great street cam and pricing on it is pretty good. I selected Omni valvetrain because alot of people sell them together. Does the valvetrain really matter?

I was considering ITR pistons which would put me somewhere in the 11:1 CR i think.

As far as, the ITB setup, I'm still reading more about that...haven't gotten too much into it so I'm open to suggestions.

Do anyone have any more recommendations for a header besides to JDM ITR? I chose that one because of its avaliblity and low price compared to DTR, Hytech, and etc. Alot of people consider this the best budget header. Is there anything that performs better for under 400?
