I would say get your throttle body bored:

Also get an A6 intake manifold and a PT6 ecu (off an A6)

[NoSloCB7]

Fuel system upgrades, igntion system upgrades, cam gear, chipped ecu or piggy back system for ECU tuning

I like the throttle body.. I might do that first..

In order to absolutely just get it up and running, you will need a new cam seal and a valve cover gasket. You would also be wise to change the Timing Belt, Balancer Belt and water pump while you are in there, unless they have been changed VERY recently. One thing that is good for a few extra HP is to remove the balancer belt altogether, and just leave the tensioner on there. you will have to put up with a little vibration, but it really isn't that noticeable.

If you want to squeeze a little bit of extra horsepower out of it after it is running, the next best things would be:

1) A throttle body (assuming you already have an intake)

2) A header or F22A4 exhaust manifold, if you don't already have one

3) An H23/JDM F22B or F22A6 Intake manifold and ECU

4) Something to enrichen the fuel mixture as necessary. (The above modifications should still be within the limits of the stock system, but could be pushing it, depending on how your fuel system is functioning.) Honda's generally run a little rich in the top end anyway, and the only real way to verify if you need to do this, or if your changes are helping, is with a dyno and a wideband O2 sensor. The "butt dyno" will not be effective here at all (is it ever).

From there, you can build a bottom end and bump up compression etc, but that is another topic entirely.

timing belt is Brand new (aprox 500 miles), i think i might Bore out my throttle body here in about two weeks..
