nitrous is probably your best/easiest bet there.....

i knew a guy with an civic ex but he put in a good nitrous kit and had it set up right to work with the vtec.... and with 3 other people in his car he was passing an s2000..... or so i was told

yes, just depends on your budget, turbo is the biggest constant gain for your buck, nitrous is the biggest bang but of course not constant.

Make sure you don't go street racing like those punks who killed the taxi driver. With great powers come great responsibilities.

If your going to go all motor then your gonna wanna do head work. I.E. cams, cam gears, new pistons, connecting rods, valves, valve springs, retainers, intake manifold, port polish, the list goes on an on... this route is gonna cost u a pretty penny. So, your best bet is to boost it. you can boost @ 8 or 9 lbs on stock internals which, will give you close to 250 to 270 whp with proper tuning. das schmoo would have better info on boosting a stock b18c1. each application has its benifits and down sides, it all depends on what you plan to do with it.
