Default B16a swap: Where to go next to reach 225-250 HP?

I recently did a B16a swap into my eg sedan.
I have already installed a cold air intake, headers, and an exhaust for my power and adding a coilover kit.
I am wondering where to go next with my build.
I am wanting more power (possivly trying to reach 225-250Hp) but being in college means I dont have money to blow on useless parts that wont be any help to reach those numbers.

What parts can I get to accomplish this kind of gain with out useless decorative pieces.

Basically with out goin with alot of internals you need to go forced induction. Like nitrous, turbo, or supercharger. If stock internals with forced induction you need to be care and tune really well.

OK......HP or WHP??

250-225hp average this two by two =237.5HP

237.5hp subtracting 15% to 20% HP loss in drivetrain/axles = 190WHP to 201WHP +/-

Average target 195.5HP........my comment result>>>>>its possible

Now if you want 225WHP to 250WHP.....ignore my comment add a turbo and nos and start saving for a new motor
