hey guys whats up? I got a B18c and i dont have much done to it other than a intake, ignition, fuel rail (witch does nothing far as im concerned but got cheep), and other little things. I was wondering IF i put a manifold (intake) and some sort of header on it would it be worth the whyle or money to get it tuned? And also if i do get it done where do i do it and what kind of increase #'s in hp and tourque could u squeeze out of it and it still be relible? Anyone who knows where to go for it lmk. I would like to have a good street car but yet keep all internals stock for relibilty. Thanks.

It's worth the improvement in throttle response alone to get it tuned.. Don't worry about reliability, you usually have to be brainless or seriously stress an engine (like with a turbo) to lose reliability. How much power you get out depends on what condition the engine starts in, and how good the tuner is. Don't expect power miracles, but you'll pick up a couple HP and some good improvements in driveability usually.

well the motor has IF i rember right right at or a lil over 250 some PSI across the cylinders. Its a jdm motor. I just wondering cus like its in a fully loaded 99 si and i went a 14.5 1 time and want a lil better but it seems the more i do the worse it gets lol. I was hoping a tune would fix that. Any recomendations on where to go and prices?? I live in the lower part of va but will travel
