Default Any ideas for power out of a D15

It is like squeezing water from stone, I know. I have the FI 2I 10 single cam head. we run primarily used blocks cuz they are cheap, but we had a head machined to IT specs.

Same old 150,000 mile cam and springs.

Autolite plugs

I am not an engine head. Please give me some ideas. I want to beat H4s

I haven't been to the dyno yet, but have an appointment after Thanksgiving. My Stormpower motor pulls very well. Let me know if you want Curt's email address.

Haven't seen Chris post in a while, but shoot RStoR a message. He did a lot of research into D15 options before he sold his hatch in favor of an S2000.

Not sure how stock you have to keep the engine though - he was investigating some pretty interesting stuff.

These guys are mostly drag racers, but I've gotten a lot of good d-series info off of this board:
