back to the topic: if you're looking to make the car faster without spending much money, then do a head swap, get some bolt-ons, and do the little stuff. you'll still be a little behind a b16, but you don't have to change the engine.

honda's have a narrow power band.
boost your honda, you achieve a flatter power curve, while making much more power than any super duper japanese cam.
honda = turbo, it's the only way these things move.

What performance options are there for him that would give him reasonable performance for the dollar? He doesn't want to run nitrous either.
