Yeah... Wel the thing is i really don't even know what i should put in my engine i i would like to pretty much make it go as fast as a d16z6 can go haha well over time but i don't know much about engine mods and i have been looken all over he net trying to find somthing about engine mods telling me what they do and stuff like cam gears how they can make a diffrence with diffrent ones. i LOVE reading about that kind of stuff like your Back pressure thing i like learning about that kind of stuff. other then cold air intake and new pipes oh and CPU(witch i don't really know how to do much with) i know nothing of improving my engine. if u had a link even to thing about stuff... haha well you know.

go to amazon or barnes and noble, and look at the honda builders books they have. you will learn a TON from reading those.

in honda motors at least the d-series i know that even a 5-10hp increase is a pretty good jump from like what these motors are putting out like around 100 hp unless you have a v-tec which is like 20 more hp,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but any little bolt on with the d-series will see a pretty good boost in power...very noticable

dude, for a z6, i would start off with increasing the exhaust piping...you can go to a muffler shop, and have them just install a custom exhaust for about $40-$65...2inch piping or 2 1/4" is more than enough...then get yourself a header, and cold air intake...also pick up and ex/si tranny....pick up an msd ignition which im selling ($90 shipped/used)...the extra spark does alot for your engine...by the way did you swap in the p28 ecu...if not, you might want to get one of those...if you dont have the p28, most likely your vtec isnt engaging...

I had a d16y8 in my coupe...i had put an msd ignition, cold air intake, exhaust, header, bigger injectors, 62mm throttle body, port and polished head, with over sized crower valves and stage 2 cam, srp pistons (.010 over), eagle rods, and a stage 2 clutch, with a chipped p28...and that motor was ripping it up...

now i just picked up a z6...and im starting to work on it also... as for the comment someone made earlier as in there not being as many parts for the z6 than for a b series..thats totally wrong...and the fact that parts are usually cheaper for a z6 than for a b series is also a plus...
