The whole point of IM's is to improve air flow. Air flow is one of the biggest factors in increasing hp. How are you gonna get the air into the IM........through a air filter. Also, the air has to flow through the head which also restricts flow. GSR heads are the best flowing heads that come stock on honda motors, no need to port them. The only way to gain hp from a IM is to force it through the head, which should be ported to maximize the benefits. Notice i said force.......in other words..... forced induction. Also, b4 that air reaches the IM, it has to go through the stock TB.
Boost is the only way to make power on a sohc.......i never seen someone make more than 200whp all motor on a streetable sohc car.
