The 200hp (at the wheels) mark has been one of those lofty goals a lot of people talk about but never attain.
So far, it's been a lot of theorizing and / or knowing of a car that someone else built.

I suggest the OP do more research first - you sound really lost on what you want to do.

Seriously, if you've never been in a turbo 13B, you really should.
High power NA 13B's are usually only reserved for "spec racing".

HA. Do more research? isnt this thread just that? Im asking questions on other peoples opions of there sp and bp? dont think i have done the same with turbo guys to? And your right i am lost on what i want to do hints all the questions. thanks for your un asked for uneducated response. You probly know what your cars but in this case your ignorance is just shining threw. If you dont like the thread theres a cool little x button on the top right. c ya.

i think im going to go SP and hope for the best and see what the dyno reveals.

You...obviously...are very new to this.
This has been discussed a bazillion times already.
Maybe not on here, but I'm sure you know how to use Google?

The same goes with with bridge ports...

So we just wasted 3 pages worth of discussion that just came back to what I suggested - build the damn car and see what it dynos.

Oh, and if it's not obvious by now...
Don't try and run a BP on the stock ECU.
There is no mention of an aftermarket EMS other than an MS - I don't consider the MS a real stand-alone EMS.
BP motors also would require upgrading the oil system and possibly bearings just to spin it to those ungodly RPM's.
Trying to run a BP under stock redlines (less than 8kRPM) is almost a waste of time.
Radical port motors, which include BP's, require very free flowing exhaust systems.
Free flowing exhuasts usually mean very loud exhausts.
