What do you guys think, yays or nays ? Let me know please.

 

Personally I think with just that list of parts on a stock bottomed B16 in a relatively heavy 2000 SI will yield a car with a lot of money invested that will lose to most V8 stangs. Personally if you wanna stay with the 1.6 liter, you're gonna need to bump compression a decent amount to get the power you want and make use of those cams. As reliability seems very high on your list, I would suggest ditching the B16 bottom end or complete longblock and going with a GSR long or shortblock. The extra torque of the bigger engine will do wonders.

 

The 70mm TB will probably be too large for that application until you finish the head and build the bottom end. You would probably loose low end torque. You may want to stick to a 65mm or 68mm TB. Just a suggestion.

 

SO how can I bump up the compression, Pistons,ring rods, etc. or what?

 

exactly you need to get higher compresion pistons. you gotta build the head and bottom end eventually. Cause sooner or later something will give with those agressive parts

 

what is this your christmas wish list just by all the stuff u are planning on buying i can tell u know nothing about your car. hell do even own a si. dude u got too research first before u go out and buy all this **** just too steal be slow. u got to research and plan out this projects just so u don't waste money and u know what works

 

You're not specifying anything about this build. You are just listing parts.
Start with compression, valve type, size, duel/single springs? etc. I personally think you 're stretching the truth on your parts list, but maybe not, give us more details.

 

like these guys already said, you cant just buy parts and piece them together. you have to talk to builders and tuners and make sure that all these parts work together for the highest possible hp numbers. your tire and suspension set-ups sounds really good, but some of those parts will be useless without higher COMPRESSION. built motors HAVE TO HAVE COMPRESSION.

by the way, your stock civic si does NOT outrun most mustangs and camaros.
