parts for d16z6 HELP!
 
I need to rebuild my d16z16 i plan on after I rebuild it I am going to do a 14b turbo. Where does everyone get that chrome valve cover for the SOHC?? And what is the best fuel pump and Engine Management system to use for a d16z6 with a 14b turbo? And one more what internal mods do i need to do like lower compression pistons? Thanks for any help.

How much horspower does that *bling*bling* valve cover add?

As for the fuel pump I would say a Walbro 255 intank pump. You can get them for around $100. The fuel management could go quite a few different ways. My personal favorite is the AFC hack. You can run 10 psi with no cels.

For pistons and rods, I would say a nice set of Eagle rods and some JE pistons with a compression of 8:1-10:1 depending on how much boost you plan on running.

Most people with the "bling bling" valve cover get the stock one and polish it.

First off I dont believe honda has ever chromed anything in around or near the engine bay.. with that said there are quite a few internal and engine managent option.. details r your friend let us in on what you have in mind.. To answer a "What is the best..?" question w/o proper details of your budget and intent or your turbo application would be quite ignorant..

Well my budget is about $4000. I want to run about 8 to 12 psi will i have to do any internal mods to run that kind of boost? I am look for a turbo that spools up fast and I would like about 200+hp. I am going to get the bottom half redone anyways because there is 212k miles on it but still has 205-210 compression on all 4 and get a new head.
