EmZvr Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 You can change the intake manifold for a D16Z6/D16Y8 because yours is plastic (if the internet pictures are correct), I'm not sure there will be gains but there should be at least small one. Next on the list Cold air intake.If you want bigger TB you need to port the intake manifold to match the new 60mm TB (you need one from B series) and port the holes that lead to the head (stupid explanation ). But if you just add bigger TB without porting the manifold it will be bad for performance. Next transmission with shorter gears/final drive (I don't have single idea what's your transmission, no information on the internet). You should aim for 4,4 final drive and gears from CRX or the easiest option gearbox from D16Y8.Next 4-2-1 header it should say that is for D series.And finally mini-me which means adding vtec but this is expensive and you need chipable CPU, adjustable cam gear and D16Y8/Z6 head.If I was in your shoes I would consider swaping the engine, it's just a 1.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVEMB2 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 I fitted a japspeed 4/2/1 mani and go decat to as long as the mani is for a d series it should fit . Good cold air intake , look to sort the gearing out that's my next mod and plan . After that like emzvr said you looking at more money . Mmmmmm what about t/c the car maybe something to look into Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKH25 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Stick a turbo on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_civicsport Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 Well I all ways get Poeple saying just do a swap i can't see the point as I may as well go buy a mb6 but I'm not giving up on my car yeah it's a 1.4 but I would like to have the fasted 1.4 and that's what it's all about giving the little d a chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu_civicsport Posted May 20, 2012 Author Share Posted May 20, 2012 Turbo was a idea but that idea is a lot lot of money to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmZvr Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 If turbo is out of your budget, then mini-me is the way to go. Everything else will lead in just a small increase in power. Go here and click -Adding VTEC to a D14 http://www.dodo-upgrades.nl/ That's a very usefull site Everybody say the same thing to me, to make a swap and I see they are right But there is nothing bad to try and squeze more power of a d series Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 It can be done reasonably cheaply, it's just a case of having a real good hunt around for the right parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
