Default question about some performance parts

im thinking about just keeping my d15b7 and getting the most out of it. but i was wondering how much horses i would get with :
skunk2 proseries intake manifold
cold air intake
magnaflow exhaust system
dc sport race header
turbo kit
larger throttle body
skunk2 adj. cam gears
and combining an older 1.5 with a newer one for higher compression
please let me know. I see everyone doing engine swaps and I want to be different and keep the engine i have right now. thank you for your help.

you;d get around 90hp i think. so in total around 185-195 to the motor depening on the turbo. turbo only adds about 50hp. 15% of motor horsepower is lost when going from the engine to the wheels so you'd be running about 165.75-166HP tops to the wheels after everything you listed is installed. you could then add nitrious though and that would be a great benefit.

with the d15b7 at 102hp to the motor, your running about 89-90hp right now to the wheels. you add all that other stuff on you will see a huge diffenrence, but your not gonna be

just the "turbo kit" itself can half sooo many different results. How many PSI, what turbo, you're tune, everything factors into it. How much could your stock internals handle? I'd say around 200 with 100% stock internals.

It'd also elminate the CAI and the header, and you only need one cam gear.....

Unless it's the JDM d15, you won't see more than roughly 150 bhp. The reason i say that is the d15's have pencil then connecting rods and aftermarket parts for them is expensive/rare. The JDM d15 is identical to the d16 except displacment.
