D15b non-vtec upgrades?

By Andre3th0u
- Tue Aug 05, 2014 5:40 pm #347682 I'm looking to beef up the performance from my d15b non-vtec engine. It's just a daily driver right now. No plan to turbo or anything. Just wanna get some more power. Looking for things like intake manifold, headers, maybe a new cam, and other stuff to help it perform better. Could also upgrade head with a mini me swap to get vtec, just need to know what head I will nead. Any advice would be appreciated!

Intake and exhaust will help too, but you might want to think about how much you'll be investing overall. A basic turbo setup might not be much more $ and you'll make more power.
