Default Question about stock engine

Hi i am new on the site and have a question. I own a 95 civic coupe si stock engine and its a AUTO.

List of mods:

Webcam cam shafts
unorthodox pulleys
heades 4 - 2 - 1
tenzo R muffler
intake

and i dont have a A/C

I for some reason feel my car is not pushing out the power its supposed and its a VTEC engine and I must say for a VTEC and the mods i have done to it I should feel some power difference . Besides from the fact that its an auto is there anything else that i might need to get checked out or any tunning options i have any help is greatly appericiated.

Thanks

A motor swap to manual would do it!!!! Drop a B18C in that **** and you'll scoot right along... The D16Z6 is a good motor, it just doesn't do to good when coupled with a auto tranny..... You could look into tranny swaps too which isn't to difficult but if you want noticable power then drop a new motor in it... I personally hate B16's but they would make that car go a lot better...

Take a read at this thread for the 'why' part.

Mista also has a nice picture of his bearings after running a UR pulley.

the picture..............



this is after 10,000 miles on a pulley that weighs about 2-3 times the UO pulley, but 40% of the stock Z6 pulley. I put the Z6 pulley back on, added A BUNCH of nitrous, 30,000 miles later, bearings still look new.
