Not trying to throw down on your pan but you would likely make just as much power doing an n/a swap to a better built motor (B16, B18, H22, K20, K24 hybrid). I'm sure there are plenty of people who have made power with D series motors but they are just not made to be built like the B's, H's, and K's.

but yeah like boxeocampeon said you'll need an FMU and injectors, not on the gas side of things but you will also want and oil cooler and and oil pressure gauge. DO NOT underestimate the power of a tune because without it your going to jack up your motor.

D's make power, they have to be a d16z6 or y8.

and D's do get built like any other motor,

put in forged rods pistons and your good till like 400whp, then you'd need to sleeve.

D's make power and at a budget at that, but if you wont some thing more than 350whp ... IMO it wont be as reliable as a b,h,k motor

sorry to say it a third time but D's make power
