Default 93 civic dx sedan - looking for ways to increase horsepower

Ok so I'm sure there gnna be some1 here to bash this post but I'm kinda new to the building I'm looking for ways to increase horsepower here's what I got so far
93 honda civic dx sedan. its a b16 vtec head (has had some work done to it)with b20b bottom end, chipped ecu with 2step, check engine shift light, tuned for 310 injectors,and I believe a gsr trans, cold air intake and custom exhaust.
Like I said I'm just looking for some ways to increase horsepower any help is appreciated Thanks! Also what parts do I need to do a turbo setup?

Intake and exhaust are not worthless...maybe on a stock D16 they are, but he's got a B20VTEC, which can easily gain a few whp with a good intake and exhuast.

OP, what's your budget? That will make a big difference in what is suggested. Proven power adders are pretty obvious: velocity stack intake, cams, raising compression, turbo, nitrous, etc.

Has the car been dyno-tuned? If it is just on a base map, you'll likely gain the most HP for the least money by having it tuned on a dyno.

Nobody said it was...wtf...

I enjoyed the sound of my rs-r exmag on my b20b non-vtec. Best find ever, next to the TRD supercharger.
