plus the fact that the b16a has a damn near perfect ratio, thats why you can build them to rev like a son of a bitch. personally I would go with some different rods and pistons to drop down the compression and get it sleeved if you get a chance...all this stroker business is nonsense...also you only need to buy one headER not headers h: and I agree that buying the header and intake is stupid if you plan on going turbo down the road, I would just use that money towards the turbo project savings....:sad: that is all
