Need help with an N/A setup!!! IDEAS
I'm thinking about going with this N/A setup, and im wondering if any one can give me some help on deciding if it's a good setup or not. Really quick, my goal would be to obtain at least 200hp to the wheels with the shopping list I have.
The car is a 96 GS-R, and I'm gonna have the head sent to Import Builders for the Dominator Head treatment package. It Includes 3 angle valve job, port and polish head, complete valvetrain good for up to 9500 RPM and 13mm or lift. Im planning on running either Skunk2 stage II cams or the ITR cams. While the head is being worked, i want to swap out the pistions and rods for some forged higher compression ones or the ITR componets. I may also ad a block guard while the block is being reworked. The car is for street use only and may see a track every once and a while. I would like to see 11.5 for the C.R. I don't know if the valves I.B is supplying would help to raise the CR slightly, ( as with the Skunk2 pieces ). I'm also gonna install a Hondata to oversee the setup, along with Skunk2 cam gears and some sort of FPR. Im not sure if I will need bigger injectors. Also later on, I will be adding a set of Header, that will flow a little bit better, but not that expensive. I'm located in the Va. Beach area, and would love to have the head work done locally or in the Va/Md area, so if any of you guys know a good shop, that can do the head work or the complete job, let me know this too, but don't set me up for Failure.
Feel free to email me, im in Kuwait, serving my country right now, and Email is limited to every 2nd or 3rd day, so it may take me a few days to reply to any responses.

So thats it, if any one has ideas please feel free to help me decide on a better setup. Right now, I'm only running an AEM intake and a Skunk2 IM, along with DC header and Apex exhaust.
If any info can be added to help me out, please let me know. Thanks peeps.

Isn't Import Builders in Ca? If you get the cams before you send it out they'll put them in there for you. If not you can install them its not hard. The block you could get done at Accuracy or somewhere in Va Beach. After the head and block are done it's a bolt on affair, just keep Tony away from the tools.
