I couldn't agree more with Crucial on this. You'll spend just as much on bolt-ons that do jack as you will on a Greddy kit or something that will give you 40-80 whp.

All it takes is a little patients and some research. If you blow your motor with a Greddy kit, you're dumb... simple as that. h:

Research a turbo and spend your money there.

BTW, you have a B16A2 in your car, not a B16. It puts out about 160 chp.

Check out www.bseries.net for more info on the B16A2.

Your EX has a D16Y8 with 127 chp. The EX motor is a SOHC VTEC and the Si motor is a DOHC VTEC.

XBaby: A thicker head gasket will raise your compression ratio. I think your talking about a block gaurd.

Search, read and learn. That's the best thing to do.

A thicker gasket will LOWER your cr as it moves the head further from the piston thus creating LESS compression.

A thinner head gasket will raise your compression. h:
