Your best bet with the Y8 would be to turbo it... other than that anything is pretty much pointless. You could also do a swap to a DOHC whether its VTEC or not still would have more potential then the Y8. Also you should try using that red button in the top right hand corner called "Search". Hope this helps!

pretty much right. the only way your going to feel anything at all would be to boost it. but if you want low maintence go with a b-series NA.
