exactly, the higher the comp the better and more precise the tunning has to be. damb Joey just drop in a BP, dont waist the time on a B6. you could drop in BP pistons, it will have to bored and should be resleved, but would be kinda sweet. N/A vs N/A the BP has so much more potential. but then again you have the cams too.

The B6 block is already bored as far as its supposed to be as it origionally started its life as a 1.3L and was bored to a 1.5 then later the 1.6. so with that said 1mm overbore is suppoed to be the max. BUT N/A 2mm would probably be fine, unless you plan on running NOS or a power adder. you could see if some one can make you a one off stroker kit, and you could probably get the displacement up u bit. i would still you your AFC to tune ui up though.

you should run ITB's (indepentant throttel bodies) how bad a-- would that be. alot of guys are using them off of like GSXR's and Ninja's, but you could do it if you had one plenium on there. that would be bad a--.

While ITB's are the best... even with a 2-piece plenum..

What i've got plans to do is what you can already get for honda's...
It's a spacer plate that goes between the IntakeMani and the head...You put long necked injectors in this plate and it puts them literally almost into each port on the head..Then make 4 Straight runners with rolled back ends and box it in with a TB mounting plate on 1 end..

It is the same as ITB in it's tunability you would just want a tuner that can map individual injectors.. a UEGO guage on each cylinder is also recommended.. (with ITB's too)..

Tunability is the same, but those setups still are crap for responce. ITBS are the fast responce setup and so far I havn't seen a faster responce setup...
