or you could do an engine swap? If your willing to drop the cash. I think a B16 would suite you fine. Also I would recommend the H22, nice power. Again thats will cost you but it will give you the power you want.

Yeah, and engine swap would also probably meet your goals pretty well. B16's put down 160-170hp at the crank, depending on variation. H22's are rated at 200hp and 160ft/lbs of torque at the crank. Either swap will cost around $4k by the time it's in the car and running (assuming you change the high-wear parts like the water pump, timing belt, etc).

I have the same d15b7 in my 95 dx coupe and I pieced together a turbo kit for around $1200 US. It was more of just a practice/experimental project but the results are pretty damn good. I've beaten a prelude with the h22 vtec motor as well as a tsx. Its still nice as a daily driver but with that satisfying whoosh of the bov when shifting .
