where can i find some more power?
I have a milled d16y8 in my ek and im looking for more power. Would it be a wise investment to get a pnp done? What other failry economic things can i do to get more power out of this engine? I have it milled 0.13 can i go more, would it be better. Looking for more power w/o boost, thanks.

Re: where can i find some more power? (turbotime)
Get a new cam.
Get a new Final Drive.
Get higher compression pistons.
I would do any of the three above or below before spending money on a PnP.
Boost options (even though you said no)
Get a turbo kit.
Get a 50 shot of nitrous.
Get a supercharger.
Get a new Final Drive.
Get higher compression pistons.

lightweight flywheel
"racing" fuel injectors
CAI/exhaust/headers/new piping
cheapest: weight reduction
Take off your carpet and chip away at the tar/sound deadening material.

this is exactly what i would say. pnp comes in handy when more air is let into the cylinder by bigger cam/cams. higher CR helps alot too.

Don't know what you mean be fairly economic.
What else do you already have? If you don't have a header get that!

He is quite a ways off from making enough power to need more fuel. So why bother with "racing" fuel injectors

why again can't the d15b7 flat top pistons be used in a D16? I remember hearing they cant, but they are so perfect for so many applications

Re: where can i find some more power? (kommon_sense)
i believe, but am not sure, that there is fuel injectors out there that add 4-6 hp, and 8+ mpg. Im not taking my time to find that information though lol.
A friend told me.. he had a 98 gsr-r. true itr. lucky bastard.

because a d15 piston would stick out of the hole in a d16 block.
