Default help me get my d16y8 into the 14's!

3 weeks ago i ran 15.55 @ 87mph (.600rt and 2.29 60ft) at Infineon raceway (sears point). My car is a 93 civic cx hatch with a 97 d16y8 engine, 94 si tranny, stock si clutch, clutchmasters flywheel and RS*R exhaust all rolling on stock crap *** cx suspension and 15 gsr wheels with 205-50-15 Falken Azenis.

this week i got coilovers, itr AEM cold air intake, RSR 4-2-1 header, new NGK-R spark plugs and a front strut bar. Would those mods help me break 15.2-15.3?

My goal is 14.99 with my D16Y8.. so what else can i do to bring down my times? I want to stay all motor (no sc, turbo or NOS). Does ZEX make a cam for my engine?
thanks guys.

get a set of slicks and remove all the weight you can - the weight makes a big difference
