pretty maxed out as far as engine potential? wtf are you talking about?!?!?!?! and it puts out 125 for 5spd and 130 for auto for the D16z6, stock probably ZC, little mods, Z6. both can be build for speed... Z6 has more parts like you said. both are good engines, both are Honda engines. its up to you.
