sedan haters issed:" class="inlineimg" />
ha ha

on my old sedan I had:
Decent set of headers (I think is was DC sports or Kamikaze, I cant remember)
AEM cam gear
Unorthodox racing pulleys
Custom exhaust piping
Decent exhaust (a quiet fartcan...much more quiet than my spoon exhaust he he)
Neuspeed springs
Neuspeed suspension bars (front, rear, top and bottom)
SRI intake

in all I was pretty happy with it, I dont care what people say the pulleys and cam gear do give you a noticeable difference IMO

The car was def. peppier than my wife's 2002 EX sedan, and I could take a lot of SOHC coupes on it.

yeah a swap and or boost would have rocked but at the time, I was a student and these mods accumulated over a few years, so if youre wanting keep your engine, power can be made out of it, but dont expect to whip ass with it, afterall its a sedan you know?

good luck!

never seen a stroker kit for a d15b7 and i don't think jun makes a cam for the d16? even if you could do all of that it's through an automatic tranny so where would it get you? from a 18.0 down to a 17.5 in the quarter mile.

if you spent all that money you could have had a swap w/ tranny conversion for the same price and be way faster.

drop in a d16a6 cam with a cam gear. cam is off half a tooth you can set it advanced or retarded without the gear. this set-up with intake and exhaust (exhaust was crush bent) has made 117 hp.
