Default What should be my next step?

What should be my next step in my swap?

Specs:

92' DX HB
JDM B16A2 00'
ITR Intake manifold
ITR Throttle body
AEM Short air
Fluidyne radiator
Nology Hotwires
Competition Clutch / Flywheel Stage 4

What would be your next move into making more hp/torque?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I would go for injectors, fuel rail, fuel pressure regulator or vtec controller.
my $.02

Unless your looking for a big jump, then Turbo!!

not to be an ***, but theres no such thing as a 2000 JDM B16a2.

i would go with a sick *** header, like a comptech or hytech. that would give you huge gains, especially with torque.

no other mod will give you as much as it is capable of unless you get a better header.

I would decide whether or not if I want all motor or forced induction. If you're going all motor then by all means get headers and do your piping if you already haven't.

Currently have the DC 4-1 ceramic. Is there a better one? Or will this do?

there's a huge thread about 4-2-1 vs 4-1 header a way back. there are differences in top-end/low-end power or something like that between them...i forgot.

From what I understand the 4-2-1 header gives power on the low-end range. The 4-1 is high-end but the 4-1 header can give better power in the low and high range if the motor is mildly to heavily modified. 4-1 is typically for drag.
