Okay first off if you're going with a straight B18B (LS motor) there's no reason to go with a VTEC oil pump, etc. If you're doing an LSVTEC or perhaps planning to do one later on then I suppose it's okay but I would recommend doing everything at once (i.e. plastigauging, new bearings if needed, pistons (if you want), rod bolts, mainly all the little stuff). As for the ITR stuff, first of all the P73 IN manifold will not bolt to the P75 cylinder head without some modifications... If you really want an ITR "style" manifold just go with the SK2, the the gains on a stock motor will be nothing... Same goes for adjustable cam sprockets, I doubt you'll make any extra power... If you wanna stay SIMPLE the easiest stuff is always the best (for power too), the intake isn't going to do much (I personally just like a stock airbox on NA setups), but the header and exhaust will be where you can probably make a little power... Just my $0.02... Good Luck

 

I agree, look to the exhaust for gains. Intakes and gears wont get you too much, and not much TQ. I also like stock air boxes on N/A set-ups
