I'll put a little effort towards getting some specifics.

So your running a stock exhaust after the DC header? That's problem #1 if you are.
What's your intake system?

B16's have no TQ (not literally) so the only chance they have at going fast is up top. if available raise the comp, ctr pistons are normally the first things people do. Some run b17 rods and crank. I dont know much about those in the b16 block so thats up to you to find out more about. Get some cams and a decent tune. Throw in a hondata IM gasket and you should be straight. Im speaking from experience and decisions I have for my b16.

Isn't it sad that because this is Honda Tech you have to point out "not literally"?

Yeah. But the real people recognize what I'm saying.
