Yep.
put in a gearbox first, else yuh just wasting time and money.
If you choose to disregard that, you can go with the basics.
I/H/E
K&N Typhoon CAI
Headers
CBE or full exhaust
You'llget a lil more pep and be a few thousand dollars poorer.

how much for a sohc gearbox + conversion? let's say $2200 - 2500
THEN add cost of I,H and E - let's say between 6-8k
(labour costs not included)
so you'd be out 8-10k and at the end you'd have just
shifted your powerband and still be desirous of more power
whereas you can humble yourself for a while again,put a few k more and get more power all round
or boost the d15b

So what you guys sayin
D15b= Lawn mower engine
B16a= Super car engine
K20a=Rocket engine
The man just want a little encouragement to do a little
I'm sure if the man had a $15,000,00 to play with we knows where the bamboo is to buy a B series
I never hear a Toyota man tell somebody buy a 2zz engine because a 20 valve not as good, is what you put in is what you get out
