Default my 200whp project

well ive had the teg for quite some time now, hittin a year for me and im quite happy. but its time to try and bust 200whp. ive read alot of how its not that possibly on a c1 block unless heads pnp, valve job and other good mods. But ive made 180whp now and figure its time to try and make more power.

Current Mods:

Hytech Replica header with an adjustable test pipe
Apexi Ws2 exhaust. 2.36. rattles a little
Blox IM with hondata gasket
old aem cai with bypass valve
ps removed, actually does make more whp

Current Dyno.


Possible next mods:

ITR cams, Skunk2 stage 1's with cam gears
Bpi velocity stack from bryan of HT
Jethot header and possibly intake arm
possibly looking for a better flowing IM that might make more midrange or topend
Skunk2 composity fuel rail
groudning kit, bought or made idk yet
tune by mikey of pro function

Things ive thought about, reserach and ideas.
The jethot idea is so that it supports exhaust velocity and gas out the motor and holds heat in the header versus spreading it to the motor. btw this is all my assumptions and thoughts not actually what ive done so i could be wrong.
Jethot the piping cause aluminum does heatsoak no matter what unless i run the stock intake arm and liek a mugen intake or arc.
skunk2 cause they say it helps make power and well im really curious if they do what they supposidly say.
I did think aobut jet hot caoting the IM. figuring that it would alos heatsoak in the engine and keeping it jethotted mite help it pass colder air from the intake
possibly thought aobut portmatchin the IM to thre throttle body
also figured a good coilover set mite help in my launching and drop a little weight up front. other than that all i can think of is lighweight rims by ssr, or gram.

These are all my thoughts, ideas and everything. everyone feel free to respond and give me advice or just throw in some comments from experience. I dont wanna hear its not possible cause im trying it regardless

Not bad, but it definitely needs a tune. that power curve could do with smoothing out.

you have any tuning on it right now?
