So just trying to get a good idea what is everybody’s opinion on the d16y8 builds and wats good to get for power I would like to see 250+ range and still have it street legal any thoughts would be great not so sure on a turbo build just yet but a very street able build would b awesome and maybe a budget around $2500. Already have a cat back n1 style that’s gonna get re done with 2.5inch from cat back. And has a cold air intake not sure if it’s running factory fuel injectors/fuel rail or what. Any ideas would be nice thanks

You're not going to see any where near 250hp without boost.

You might get to 210hp with high compression pistons, an aftermarket camshaft and engine management/tune.

Camshaft $400
Pistons $600-$1000
Engine management $600+
Harness adapter $200
Stand alone wideband air fuel $300
Tune $300+

Might need better head studs, lighter retainers/springs, rods, fuel pump and injectors. (You'll have to research N/A builds).

I'd advise going the turbo route though because what's listed above is 2/3 of what you'll need to boost; and youll make more power.
