I have a civic with a d16y8 in it and was wondering what i could do to get more hp from it without spending a lot of money. The only thing i have done to it now is a cat back and short shifter.

The next thing that I would do is change out the intake on te car. Now that you can get rid of the exhaust better you need to get more air in the engine. You can also add an aftermarket cam gear. The cam gear acn help you a little bit or it can hurt you alot if done wrong. There isn't really too much timing that you can get out of the motor thats extra but there is just enough to give you a little bit. You may also look into changing out your throttle body or maybe ading a throttle body spacer to add a little more hp and torque. Good luck an keep us updated.

yea im still deciding on a ram air intake or cold air with a bybass valve. How hard would it be to change the cam gear? I was thinking about underdrive pulleys too

Throttle Body wont do shit unless you got a bigger cam to suck more air
