I'm going to upgrade my B16A2 a little bit.

I'm going to keep my stock valves. My question now is, wich Valve Springs & Ti. Retainers will work the best without putting a lot of damage to the stock valves..


I'm going for bolt-on mods, like 310cc injectors, Skunk2/Edelbrock intake manifold, bigger TB, Hytech header and prolly Skunk2 stage 1 camshafts + Skunk2 cam gears.

I was thinking of Supertech springs & retainers or Skunk2 personally.

Let me here your opinion

What are you using for engine management?? The reason I ask is cuz your stock ECU isnt going to run those 310 injectors.

I have Skunk2 valvetrain and cams in my car. Beat on that shit for the past 3 years without issue. I personally like their products. :thumb:

oke, so more people go with Skunk2. But now comes the other problem, i can get the Supertech Valvtrain for $300 and i must pay for the skunk2 $400

:lol:


The ecu will be tuned with Crome or eCtune.

@Bietelboer: Those 240cc won't do the job if i tickle the engine 8)

for tuning I would highly suggest going with a hondata ecu. you will get more power out of it and most tuners are better with it than crome

Nah, will go with Crome prolly. Cuz someone here in Holland will tune it for me, has tuned Bietelboers car also. With Crome, and then some testlaps with a wideband lambda and a laptop :thumb: to finetune it

There are alot of people that can tune with crome now and they get just as much power if not more than hondata. I guy here uses neptune and gets awesome results.
