all motor b16a
If I wanted make my b16a2 motor go fast with all internal work,what could I do?? I was thinking about p&p the head,type-r valves,springs and retainers,and maybe type-r cams. how about the block,should I keep it stock?? any ideas as to what I could do to my p30 to get the most out of these additions?

Thanks but,that answered absolutely none of my questions. please be more specific. I already stated what I would do to the head. I need to know more about the block and ecu work.

Knife edged crank, high compression pistons (ie. 12.0:1) with rods, port and polish cylinder head, longer duration cams with springs, retainers, etc...match ported intake manifold or go with a JG Edelbrock X (pretty good #s out of those), bored throttle body, intake, headers, 2.5" exhaust system, ignition, upgraded fuel, upgraded ECU or piggyback (Hondata), etc...

Still here... sorta...
Hondata isn't a piggy back. VAFC/SAFC is a piggy back. Hondata is an EMS. 
You don't need to knife edge unless you're going with a very high revving engine. The knife edge can rob your top half of oil too so be aware of that.
The JDM DC header is a good choice as the collector is 2.5" or you could even go with a drag header that just stops at the collector (no more exhaust).
By highter compression I mean bigger bore with taller pistons. You could also get a lot more out of bigger valves with a longer duration cam.
It all depends on how much you want to do.

it's my D in a B
if youre looking for some real impressive #s, a cam like toda spec B or even C, and aftermarket valvetrain (springs, valves, retainers) will yield better results than ITR/CTR cams/valvetrain.
An extrude honed B16 intake mani would be all the flow you could use n/a... so you wouldn't need to bother buying one.
With cams/valvetrain that agressive, you'll be making most of your power above 6500... Spec Cs make most of their power 7500-10000... At that engine speed rods would be a major consideration.
Or if youre just looking for a modest bump in power, nothing too wild, type R valvetrain and pistons would be fine. And probably give you a good healthy 15-20 hp w/ i/h/e.... Just depends on what your goals are.

whatever you decide to do. get an engine management system and take it to a good shop to be tuned. Soooo much power to be created. thats your best bang for the buck right there. I would recomend hondata.
