Pistons and Rods for sure. the rods are the first to go on a boosted honda. look into some good head work also.

Turbo kit will depend on the power level you are trying to achieve.

Stock cams seem to work well with any boosted honda application.

Eagle H-beam rods, 9:1 compression Weisco Pistons. you can go up to a 2.0 bore on your b16 if you want... not necessary. you would still need to bring your bottom end to the machine shop to hone it out and all.

Skunk2 springs and retainers for the head work.

look up Full- Race turbo kits.
most b-series owners run the Precision SC-61 turbo, which is good for up to 450hp.

btw: this is not your Baller on a Budget setup. you'll be spending a good 5- 6k for all this, if you do it correctly.

lol naaaaa

get a egay kit nikka

Sc61 on a 1.6l is going to be way laggy, get that turbo if your shooting for 550whp, not 300whp.

If i were you I wouldn't touch the head for a 300hp goal. Get eagle h-beams and forged pistons with lower compression. I like wiseco and around 9.0:1 Cr, i don't know what crs are available for the b16.

I'd get this for the manifold, downpipe, etc. http://www.spoolinperformance.com/sp...41f040d1de8d7e, a 50trim t3/t04e (.48a/r turbine, stage 3 wheel), 38mm tial wastegate, treadstone performance IC piping, ebay IC. Then you have to get miscelaneous stuff like oil lines, bov, etc.

With a good fuel setup this kit will easily support 400whp and be pretty responsive. Don't cheap out on the tune, hondata or some other rom tune will work great. I'd get atleast ~650cc injectors so you will have room to grow in the future.

why'd you start a thread in the domestic section?

it belongs in the import.
