Default HELP! I need help with ideas and options.

Ok, check it out.

I've got a 98 Civic EX, of course with the lil' ol' SOHC d16 right? And well, short of getting a turbo or even doing a complete engine swap (I am probably fixing to line up a b18 swap with friends in the future.), what are some of my options to improve speed and quickness? I presently have little things such as an Intake, and a NX system running a 50 shot. I am fixing to install a air/fuel ratio gauge in order to monitor that in hopes of being able to up my shot up to 65 or 75 (ANY OPINIONS THERE?)

So, what are some options for me? I was told to go with maybe a diff. clutch and flywheel, but do they tend to make a good difference? ($450 for both new). THANKS to anyone for ANY help or thoughts!

remove interior parts, take out power steering, take out ac. I did all of this stuff on my coupe and the little D pulls a lot harder now

definately ditch your ps. very noticeable gains. if you put a breather in the middle of the looped rack, the wheel isn't even that hard to turn when stopped. plus it feels great on the road. ps is for the old and weak.

i've got an 8.8lb flywheel - the mid and top end is a little quicker. i really want a limited slip too, that'll help your cause out a lot.
