from talking to a guy that runs a performance shop for mainly honda's and was a honda mech for years. Stock bore is not a big deal with the stage 2 or stage 1 but you will get quite a boost going to a hi compression piston.

that's my next move. cheap and easy home job. I'm staying at 400cc because I'm an instant gratification type of guy. I can drop a new piston in, in no time flat all buy my self.

It will be a while though. I'm very happy for now. might as well ride that out before I dump more money

well your looking at what I have but with a stage one instead.
I also have fore 2in holes in the top of my air box lid.

It's hard for me to comment on adding the cam after the pipe and filter because I did them all at once for the most part. I did however get to ride up the street a couple times be for the cam was dropped in. I do think I gained a good mid range boost without the loss of low end from the cam. So far I love it.

not much help I know
