Its not worth it man, you will see small hp gains by doing this, maybe AT BEST 6hp, not worth the work imo

im not doing extreme though, i was doing .020 over pistons and .010 under crank bearings just so the clearences are good and no egging cylinders or anything... i was thinking about doing the gsr cams for a little more lift/length and do a little port and polishing on the head. the b16 did have some aftermarket things on it though. header, short ram intake, aem fuel rail and injectors, and there may be a couple other things i dont remember. so who would i go to to get it tuned in hampton roads area? im in virginia beach
