Default Next step...

Whats a good next step after doing the basic IHE setup to gain some lower end HP and get some more torque out of the car. And don't flame on me saying just get an engine swap and get it over with, i plan on keeping my D16Y8 engine just getting the stock engine more powerful. Thanks

This isn't the answer you want to hear but you should of just swapped motors. I'd reccommend an LS swap for some nice power, because you can find them fairly cheap(heck of a lot cheaper than a GSR swap). Or you could boost your current motor.

If you dont have an aftermarket cat, get one, and for some moderate power you could do a "mini-me" swap, which is using the D16A6 block with your VTEC head.
