Need HELP with Tuning my NA 13b

Hey guys here is the thing i live in jamaica and i own a 2nd gen na rx7 its not quite ready for the road yet because i am doin a restoration i would like to do some stuff to the engine before i satrt driving it. i dont have the money to change the engint to the turbo 13b right now so i have to settle fo less speed. I am willing to spend on my current engine though and i want to know what kind of suggestions u have if i want to get 250 bhp.

thx in advance

Although Not impossible,it is very Unlikely that you will ever see 250 HP out of a 13b N/A engine.If you spent the Money on a Crapped out TII Engine and rebuilt it,then you would fare off alot better.My reasoning is Why should you Sink Thousands(and I do mean that) into the N/A and then "upgrade"?..the Horsepower would be Attainable in the N/A only at the Sacrifice of alot of Money.The Power of a TII would be Minimal 210 hp Stock...Look up Posts by KAHREN,also look up "beefy N/A Thread",through the Forum's Search Function.You will find that I am only Trying to Save you a Couple bucks,and Not steer you away from a Powerful N/A engine.I'm Most likely the Cheapest Bastard on Forum,and I would like to have an N/A that will Put out at least 200..but Dammit,I can't justify the Money into the engine,to gain maybe 40 horsepower,when I know Factually that the Stock Turbo engine,without Mods will give me Reliable Horsepower for a fraction of the Modded N/A build..anyhow,Good luck..signed EL Cheapo STYX-O!!~
