You can go with any number of allmotor parts, but if i was doin it, id probly go about it like this:

B18C1
Skunk2 i/m
Moderately aggressive cams (Toda A or B/ JUN 3/ Skunk stage 2)
Supporting valvetrain
Ported/polished head
~11.0:1 comp. +
Tuned Hondata

just my 2 cents

Default Add 50hp to N/A

If your looking to run N/A check out www.Gude.com. They can improve your hp by 50. If they don't have what your looking for check out JG. They are more for the all race and no daily driver. Lots of optioins.

I wouldn't touch Gude even if they sold cams in a 6pack for $12.50.

If you like the sound of vtec, just get the b16a2 swap with the turbo. You'll still hear the vtec plus the sound of the turbo boosting.

If you want the reliability of NA (and want power), then get the biggest displacement block you can. The 1.6L isn't going to give you any torque. If you want to keep a vtec block, go with the gsr or type r (b18c, b18c5). Now, if you want cheaper power, then get a ls or crv block and put the b16 head on that.
