hey guys so I bought a skunk2 intake manifold and skunk2 throttlebody. I decided to go all motor, cams are pretty pricey, would it be worth it to get itr cams? and I was told I should build the block? this is a budget build. what to do lol

Friendly advice. I've got a skunk2 intake manifold and the Alpha-series throttle body.
The manifold works great, but the TB is trash. Mine will not stay in voltage range for the TPS and the idle jumps, despite months of tweaking and tuning and using the OEM TPS sensors and an aftermarket one. I don't think i'm alone in that, either.
So just be wary of it, i'm gonna junk mine next month for an Edlebrock or BWR that come with a pre-tuned TPS.

Mine is 66mm. Hopefully the larger ones are better. Does yours come with a TPS pre-installed? Mine was bare and I had to re-use the OEM one.
If it has one pre-installed, great. If not, I've found best performance if you can get the idle at a perfect 0.5 volt with OEM TPS only. The aftermarket ones will not stay in tune. Mine goes over-voltage when I floor it and the CEL pops on, and runs it rich.

hey guys so major updates(kinda) lol got the motor together and in car, have a few questions.
block:
stock b16a
engine:
b16a
supertech valve seals
supertech valvetrain kit
skunk2 intake mani
skunk2 70mm throttle body
4-2-1 dc headers
whale penis intake
i will be putting blox stage 1 cams later on..
does anyone know what my power will be like( roughly) also should i get it tuned even though im not putting cams in yet?
