Default b18a questions..

I have a 99 Civic SI with a b18a engine swap.. I need to know, what upgrades could I do to make this engine bleed..
I did the c/a intake.. I'm thinking of possibly new cams and some turbo?? What is the healthy choice on what upgrades to do?? Thanks

I have the same swap done and I started with throttle body/intake manifold/header & exhaust and its all made a nice increase. If you plan to do turbo, you'll want to do cams at the same time.

id drop the bottom end out before anything. if you're mechanically inclined enough...you could do an LS/VTEC conversion. its putting a vtec head on your LS. its one hell of an engine but its tough to get right. if you dont want to do that you could do a turbo and get some cams.
