Im taking it its a d15b7 block with a d16z6 head. There are a number of things you could do for power,but you need to understand its a small motor,unless you go with forced induction you cant get much out of it.

First is first get a good flowing header and exhaust,remember to now go to big or you will be loosing more power than your making.Also a good intake,cold or short ram are mainly the only possibilities.Lastly get the ecu chipped and eitther tuned or a good base map,since your motor did not come like that from the factory.

If you really plan on making more power I say you should get rid of your current engine, swap in a gsr and get this; https://www.vadriven.com/forums/show...ight=Turbo+kit

If you want to keep the motor, start with the simple things like intake and exhaust.....if not just invest in a swap
