Default i need to go faster in hybrid

I have a 92 4 dr civic. I use to have a stock 1.5 liter non vtec engine but i had a Greddy turbo kit. I just did my swap over the weekend. I got a 99 J spec 1.8 GSR motor with LSD. I got a AEM cold air intake, DC headers, 3A racing exhaust, AEM fuel regulator and fuel rail and cam gears. I have a HVC coil from MSD and a 6al ignition. I also have a Mugen clutch with a Exedy flywheel. The last thing i have is a Apexi vtec controller. I also have OBD 1. I need to know what should i do next. I want to eventually go turbo so i don't want to but any bigtime parts that i can't use on the turbo. I would like to keep the bottom end stock. Basically i want to be in the 13's all motor. Can someone please help me. I need all the help i can get.

im confused you are contradicting yourself

I want to eventually go turbo so i don't want to but any bigtime parts that i can't use on the turbo. I would like to keep the bottom end stock. Basically i want to be in the 13's all motor.

well to get 13's allmotor your going to have to buy stuff that you have to toss when you get turbo like high compression pistons, headers, etc etc.

ok i want to keep the bottom end stock. I don't want pistons or rods until i go turbo. Is there anything i can buy for the valvetrain that works for both all motor or turbo.

Throw out your interior, and buy drag slicks or radials.

heh good one..

moderate headwork and better valvetrain to rev to 9k.. ITR cams (i'd recommend better, but low price for performance gains).. I noticed u said obd1, but if u dont have a custom chip, get one.. These will all work very nicely with any route u choose, FI or NA.. If u plan to go overboard with your setup, these are all easily sellable..

U can retain A/C, u need an a/c bracket from the del-sol dohc vtec to properly mount ur stock compressor.

well like everyone said headwork is good ,a set itr cams,itr intake mani ,and sometimes to switch to a b16 head is better,but that should help out alot,also i'm the guy interested in your single cam,let me know when you pick it up,good luck with the gsr motor

You could try a nice set of Crower 403 cams, springs and retainers. Cheap and good gains. Alot of people say some stuff about there product but overall theres plenty of people happy with their Crower setups. Why I bring this up also is cause I have all of that for sale. With your setup now and some proper tuning these will net you around 20 to 25 WHP. Good luck with your project and email me if interested. I will ship everything for $700.
