Default Going back to N/A (need advice)

OK, so here's the deal. I'm sick of blowing motors left and right with boost so I'm going to build a nice, reliable N/A LS/VTEC motor. I want to make good power but be streetable.

Here's what I already have:

-LS block (bored .20 over with blockguard)
-Hondata Stage 2 setup for an ITR
-Eagle rods
-Stock LS crank
-ARP GS-R head studs


I was thinking about some 11.5:1 endyn rollerwave pistons, a b16a head, skunk2 manifold, itr cams and a jdm 4-1 header.

With good tuning is this enough to get me 200whp? Am I being realistic?

I don't think you'll make it to 200whp w/ that setup alone, but I wish you luck.

OK, so what's it going to take to do that and be reliable?

Stupid question, but do you have the oil lines already drilled for the LS/Vtec??? That is very important to make the car reliable!
