Your engine is already making 106hp at the flywheel.

Nitrous oxide adds the most power for ther least amount of money.

A super cheap mod that will help, swap in a used 96-00 EX (D16Y8 motor, your CX is a D16Y7) intake manifold and cheapy eBay EX short ram. An EX tranny will wake it up quite a bit without even adding any power if you want to spend a little more but don't want to go for an all out motor swap.

you could swap a z6 in it or build it up. so you know you could get more whp out of a built d then paying 3k$ plus for a b16 build. check out this article.
