What now for B16
 
Alright, I got my B16 in a few days ago. Love every minute of it. What should I do now performance wise? Maybe Vtec controller? THX

Vtec controller is going to do nothing, lowering the vtec point is actually known to make it worse. This makes a huge hp dip in your power curve. (yes it sounds cool with vtec coming on sooner, but is not worth it)

What would be next? Well, since this is HMT, I'd suggest a custom turbokit for your B16a. Turbo b16a's rip quite well. But if your not ready for that, you can go with your conventional Intake/Header/Exhaust.. maybe some cam gears, oh, and a set of ITR/CTR cams do nicely too ;)

Thank you Abaz. I've thought of going custom turbo with a DSM T25 turbo, but I don't know if I could do that with my not so great mechanical knowledge right now. I did find a nice site on custom turbocharging an Integra. Taught me alot actually, but I still want to wait till I have enough money or something. Anymore suggestions?

When it comes to a b16 and the b18 in the Teg, there is almost no difference. Just about anything that will work on the Teg will work on the B16.

btw, a t25 would be way too small.

yah, if u dont have the mech knowledge go w/ a i/h/e. Just don't expect to much from those ;)

i'd say, for the money you'll spend on a decent I/H/E you'll already be halfway to a turbo, stick around her for a while and boost that bitch. you'll thank me someday

yeah definatley boost that thing, get some uberdata or ghettodyne for fuel manegement, get a t3 turbo out of a thunderburd turbo coupe, yadadadadddydydydydaydyady, and you could easily make 250whp. go do some research in the turbo projects. get a kit on that bad boyee.
