Default ? what to do for next mod upgrade

95 civic coupe with b18c. current set up cai/header/exhaust/hi-flow cat. daily driven but hits the drag strip once in a while. i am in need of help for whats the next upgrade that will benefit more hp. i have search and found tons of info but still lost what i should decide.i do not want to sacrifice my midrange so im is out of the question.also with only bolt on mod is there a noticeable gain if i were to get hondata with the set up i have.im currently leaning toward to get hondata but have hear its not worth the upgrade since i only have i/h/e/hi-flow cat.pls post any recommendation you may have.all those who reply thank you for the input.


do not post if you have negative comments.just keep it to yourself and STFU.

As far as more performance stuff goes, I don't know if you would exactly consider it bolt-on or not, but you could look at cams, p&p the head...

Would you consider going forced induction? If you would, look at that next.

only have $500 to spend so looking mostly for parts best bang for the buck. my plans are all motor.no nos or fi. i have thought about upgrade to im but have hear from others that sometimes stock im is much better results since every motor are different.dont want to spend money for im that later will result in lost in hp and slap the stock im back in.any comment is appreciated.

Save a little more and get the head ported. Work your way from the inside out,that way your not having to take stuff apart youve already done...
After headwork(and a 2 layer headgasket)
cams/springs/retainers
Intake + exhaust manifolds
Engine management
slicks

<FONT COLOR="blue">If you don't already have one get a adjustable fpr w/ gage. Lightweight flywheel or cams would be nice as well</FONT>
