Are you saying you're ready to upgrade internals on your stock dual point?

your not gonna get much from a built d15 unless you boost it. with the money you put in to build it you could have an engine swap and make more power. this has been around for decades now. how many NA d series have you seen? not many b/c a b16 makes what a built d does stock.

It's just in Cali they Wont pass swaps and if they do its a pain in the butt I don't want super man just looking for 30 or 40 horse for my daily so how much would it be for the dual to multi swap ? Cause I read on here it would give just under the si ef stock power and that about what I'm looking for maybe a tad bit more

After converting to mpfi, you should consider the mini-me head swap. Cali emissions are worse than their real estate prices.
