what would be my next move in performance wise?

readin the b20vtec discussion thread atm!

ok! ive decided not to go b20vtec! its a great build no doubt about it! but it way too much for me. but yeah definitely decided on ek9 head + type R intake manifold and TB + type R lsd box. thanks all for your heap. much appreciated

i guess my next question is whats the better way to go with the ek9 head? replace the cams valve spring with ek9 ones? or just buy a ek9 head.

if you do the intake manifold i would recommend getting a hondata gasket as well - quality product that =)

lol your friggin sarcasm man hahahah

I think you're making the right decision pursuing the B20VTEC.

I built my B16A head with cam shafts/gears, valves, valve springs, retainers, port work, ITR throttle body/intake manifold, re-welded combustion chambers, angle-grind blah blah blah and to be honest I think I'd rather start with the B20 block next time. I've seen B20VTEC's with I/H/E making great power (around the 115kw mark usually) and the low-end power feels awesome.

Throw in a 4.7 gearbox and you're laughing.

Although IMO the mod with the best re-sell value would probably be the 4.7 GBox. Building your engine head with cams etc you'll never get any of your money back.

i would also get a itr intake manifold with throttle body to get the best out of your cams
then a tune

GOLD!

yeah im not! haha! sorry to disappoint you guys !

ta misread

does he need a tune since his getting EK9 cams? if he does may aswell add in a hondata S300 while his getting it tuned lol

hey guys, its such a hard decision! i dno if i should get oem ek9r/dc2r cams... or aftermarket cams.. same with intake manifold and throttle.. to got dc2r oem or aftermarket.. but either way, im definitely going to get a hondata s300 to tune my car.

i was once told you may aswell add a little more money in for aftermarket cams, not too sure though
