Default Next Mod advice

I have a 95 LS 4 door Auto with a CAI, and Exhaust system.

My Hp goal is to get close to 200 HP
Or to run close to VTEC power.

I was looking for some advice to increase the performane of my teg.
Although i doubt that i could afford a manual swap.

Any suggestions?
How should i approach this?

Thanks alot

Well, you have more flow going into the motor and more flow going out . . . why not improve what the motor is doing with that? Go with new cams, throttle body and a tune so the motor puts more gas with all that air.

I was kind of thinking of doing some performance internal parts. Like pistons, etc.
I thought that aftermarket CAM's are illegal. And I've heard that throttle bodies only give you a slight HP gain. Also that the tune probably wound have minimal effects

Building an LS engine All motor is just not worth it. If you want to run with the big boys your going to need to blow way too much money (and even then I dont' know what you can do to an LS because I'm not into non vtec) or go boost. IMO you should just save up for Boost, or do a swap.

It's going to be hard to hit 200 when you can't even afford a manual swap.

yeha man your outta luck there. If auto an manual went at it with the same EXACT parts, you wouldnt have the same power for ****. Go to a junk yard and do a BACKYARD conversion AUTO to MANUAL swap. <----- Thats your first goal

Automatic = can't drive a stick. Or to lazy to drive a manual. Get a manual, then build a car. If you want to build a automatic racer, be prepared to be laughed at. Let me be the first: hahahahaa......J/K Go get yourself a manual pal. Then I help.
