well before you just start dropping money into it think of a long term plan for your ride. that way you wont be spending money on things that you wont be using in the future.
plan to swap?
n/a or forced induction?
but if you just want to make it quicker now port/polish to open it up although i dunno if it would be worth it on a d16z. why not go with the single header/cam.
oh yea drink get laid

From what I've seen, a header does wonders for D16's. But like the first guy/girl said, what are the plans for your car?? Are you gonna keep the D16, FI, motor swap??

AEM + a good driver.
I gave 99 Civ Si's fits with my tuned D15 NON VTEC!
They could only catch be at about 125-130 mph when I ran out of gear.

If you're planning to keep it on the motor, raise the compression by milling the head, throw on a header, and a Zex cam, and put your car on a diet.

Re: how to make my 95 Ex keep up with an Si (nfiedler3)
ok here's the run down, my car currently has 103k sooo i'm going to prolly drive it until she dies and do a b16a swap or wait until my financial situation settles down and do b18c, but that could be years from now therefore for now i just want some add on's to simply at LEAST hang with an Si..As far as milling what are the procedures and pricings??

JCRC should give u as much hp as the SI without having to make many other mods to ur motor..and unless ur planning alot of trips to the redline, the motor should should still have alot of life in it after 200k

That is another thing that needs updated!!!!!!
BTW I think a 88-91 HF/STD 3rd gear will work for a 1.034 4th in a S20/EG tranny, so no gringing would be needed. All you would need to source would be a ZC 3rd gearset.
TOO many projects, never enough time!
