Re: Hondata

No point on a stock engine. Maybe with a new camshaft and bolt ons but you have the none VTEC head so you would be better off swapping the head first.

I was thinking about swapping to the d17a2 the whole engine but I dont know if it would fit my trans. I was also told to get it breathing and bigger injectors

On a none economy box engine sure, D17 no! Best bang for the buck mod to get a good HP bump is a camshaft swap. Nothing else is needed just a stage 1 cam.

Don't need injectors.

VTEC head swap
Stage 1 cam (you will need to find a used one or send Crower the one out of your car so they can regrind it as no one makes a camshaft for the car anymore)
Swap over to Ex headers and hi-flow cat
Intake won't hurt

Re: Hondata

Thank you. I've already ordered a intake to take the stock one off so it can breathe I gotta find a vtec head off the same or a year later ex I'm probably gonna send my cam in to them so they can do what they need to do then gotta find some headers. Might put a cat back exhaust on it
