Default i need help!!!

hi ok i have a d16z6 with a AEM cold air intake, DC sport 4-2-1 headers, Gready exhaust, no ac & ps plus the frame has been lightened. i had herd from some one before that if i take the crank shaft and cam shaft out of a d15 engine and put it in the d16z6 that it will boost up my horse power. i was wondering if thats true and what i would have to go through to do it. and i was wondering what else i can do to make this thing scream.

No, the crankshaft isn't even compatible with your engine. "Some one" is bullshitting you.

Options for a d-series engine "to make this thing scream":
1) turbocharge it
2) nitrous oxide
3) a big cam, lots of compression, and well-designed manifolding

msd blaster 2 ignition coil would set your car off. i have almost the exact same set-up except an dc sport cat-back.

What do you mean? The coil alone will make his car super fast?

not super fast, but when i did mine i did an msd cap, rotor and external blaster 2 coil. it was a hell of a difference. alot more than i was hopping to get to be honest. its not gonna be like bolting in a turbo but hell it was cheap and worth it. honda ignition coils are notoriously weak.

Eh, the coils are fine unless it's a very serious build. An external coil won't make much difference unless there was a problem with the original ignition system (worn parts, etc.).

well it made me happy. my oem coil only has about 115k on it. for what i spent i was pleased. better than wasting money on some else. my motor isnt too done up so i didnt do an ignition control box or anything. just the coil and cap.

what I heard done was the internals out of GX(natural gas) model swapped into a single cam block... That jacked the compression way up... As I recall, the car went all motor... It seemed to be a sweet way to do a cheap build...

where do you want to start. theres a lot of ****

intake mani
cam
cam gear
ignition
pistons
rods
nitrous
turbo
throttle body

its not what parts you have, its how they work together. like on your set-up an intake mani or cam gear would do nothing unless you have a matching part like throttle body or cam. and if you do an intake mani and t-b youve added more air, so now you need to add more fuel and a tune. do some research.

Bolt-ons will not change the engine's airflow. They change the way in which the air travels through the engine.

your trying to tell me that an oem t-b compared to a 68mm aftermarket t-b with a matching 68mm intake mani opening doesnt change the amount of air that can come in?

Right. It just lowers the air velocity.
