What do you suggest for more power for me?
 
Okay, i'm thinking of H22 swap but before i make swift decisions... i'm wondering if there's any more way of squeezing power out of my B18A

it pulls well, i was going to turbo it but i decided to turbo my other civic where it originally came off of and just sell it.

Anyways, so far it's got(for power anyways) I bought the car as it sits and i don't even know what to get yet because i dont know if i'd be downgrading/upgrading.

B18A swap,
DC 4-2-1 headers,
2 1/4" highflow custom exhaust(hate the sound of it though, can't even talk on phone on the highway)
K&N CAI
AEM underpulley,
Cams...(receipt looks like.. it says crower but not 100% sure, the guy paid 900bux for'em i guess installation too)
A mechanic said it sounds like it's chipped.... just a passerby mechanic....
It's got Mitsubishi ECU for some reason...

I want to build a car at least, capable of 13 seconds. I've never dynoed/tracked this car though... anyone know where i can dyno??

anyways... the real question here is...
what should i do next?

You can swap out the transmission and do an ls-vtec conversion. With the right tires, reaction time and a maybe a small weight reduction its possible to get into the high 13s.

oh yeah, about that... what is LS-vtec? i mean i hear it a lot
but i don't really know what it is... i heard it's like b18 with b16 head?
but i'm stuck right here... wondering if that'd be an upgrade because of vtec or downgrade since i'm losing my cams...

you know?

so sell the cams.

Research ls/vtec to find out what it is
