Points of failure on a D15B7
I was wondering what would have to be done to a D15B7 for it to take more power. I know that by default the max is around 50 extra HP (100 -> 150). I assume that getting better connecting rods would be first, but what would be after that?

That's not what I'm asking. Boost or NOS would work to give it more power, yes, but what parts would I change to make the engine be able to run at 250 HP without blowing up?

D series on stock internals can hold just overt 200 whp on a good tune.
To withstand more, you'll need cams, valves/retainers, pistons and rods.
It's pretty much common sense, if you want your engine to be stronger, use stronger parts.
EDIT: Oh, and a kickass clutch,

Search. Though the initial car is a vtec build, there are several nonvtec built singles mentioned in the same thread. It took me like 5 minutes to find this with that little red button on the top right part of your screen.

Congratulations, jackass, you can tell me to search. Even better, to prove your worth, you can give me a link that doesn't come close to answering what I asked.

What about the crankshaft and bottom end? I can't find anything on how much power they can take.
