HP varies throughout the powerband...

and to let you know, most nitrous systems are setup so that they activate at wide open throttle, not by pushing a button. and nitrous is the easiest way to get 120hp. you don't want nitrous though, so for 120HP get turbo and an engine build.

if you mean not a 120hp gain but rather to get up to 120hp, the easiest way to do this is a mini-me swap. that is putting a d16z6 head on your d15b7 block, and using a d16z6 ECU.

from your original post, are you trying to get to 120hp, or trying to gain 120hp?

I was wanting to get to 120ish. It's not really a "goal" number, I was just wanting it to be a tid more agressive.

do the headswap, but use the 96-00 head, from a d16y8, along with the intake manifold, then do a good intake and exhaust, and youll be around 130-135 at the flywheel. not fast, but a lot quicker.
