R18 build
So I already ordered a cold air intake and a catback from spec d the car is 140 hp trying to make a build range from 200- 280 for now the air intake I have no idea how much power is going to give but the car promises an additional 15 so I'm going to need ideas on the build I also have a mugen wing (because people think the car is faster)

Re: R18 build
reastically, you'll get a gain of 1-4whp in the upper RPM band, and a loss of 1-3 in the lower rpm band.
You wanna get to 200, you'll have to do some serious engine work or boost it or swap for a K20
edit: added another option to get to 200whp

The engine has 60000 miles I figure it be worth it but I honestly don't know much about car n I plan on attending a trade school for Mechanic but right now I'll be happy from 200 to 240

You're going to need major coin to hit 200+
You're looking at
-Forced induction
-High compression build
-You could also look at NO2, and no I 'm not joking. I never got into it because it's not easy to find close to my house and you have to worry about refilling it. But it would be a cheap way to hit 200.
Probably $500 for Kit, $500 for ECU and $300 to tune.
