whats your goals. do u want a lil more power, a lot more power, keep the car a dd or a track or both. how reliable do u want it to be. its not worth really stroking it your only option is a b17 crank and shit rare and not really worth the lil gains if any u might get. boost is great on a b16 but id build it a lil first.

350WHP, you're going to go the boost route. I cannot imagine the amount of money it would take for an N/A 350 build on a B16.

^you told yourself to QFT?


i'd at least build the bottom end, and boost with a tune.
probably the easiest route to go.
