Default What to do with my D15

I would like to know what I could or should do next to my JDM D15B? I have already put headers, exhaust - catalytic converter, skunk 2 suspension, and the air intake. I am planning to next do the Torque Converter, but I can not find the JMO brand. What should I do next? What to get as much out of the engine as possible.

Just out of curiosity, which ECU are you using?
The correct JDM ecu?

Headers are already installed

Valves, Cams, Port and Polish, = HOW MUCH and what parts should I use?

Maybe switching to manual is not a bad idea

Using a P28, tried to find a JDM, but nothing any idea where I can find one

Want to wait on the boost, last project

Switching to manual is the best idea since it will feel like a totally different car.... also Bauley wasnt saying Headers because you didnt buy them yet, he was saying headers because your has one not 2? You have a header.

I did purchase a header for the car. Not headers.
And the exhaust - catalytic converter means NO catalylic converter. Straight pipe

Right you have a header, but you said headers previously..... and since when does a Catalytic mean a straight pipe?

Just get an EX tranny and you'll feel a huge difference.

?? Yeah... and according to your signature you have a d16y8 which is close in comparison to what is being discussed but not at all....also why do you have it chipped to rev to 9k or for Vtec to engage at 4800?

If you notice I have a (-) in front of the Catalytic Converter. I should have just said straight pipe so everyone knew. Car already has EX tranny. Thinking of changing out the throttle body, intake manifold, fuel rail, injectors and fuel pump. Not sure if it will make that much of a difference, but I figured why not try. Also looking at ordering a 5 speed tranny for it.
