boosted d16z6 looking for some extra power

Alright guys looking for some advice..
this summer i built my first setup, d16z6, t25, dsm 450's, hf mani, fmic
I am currently running 10psi daily driven.. i've put about 20,000k of hard driving on it and its still running perfect.

I am looking for something to get some extra gains out of this thing.. how much more power could I really get safely out of this motor..

I was thinking of getting a skunk2 trottle body and intake mani, would I get a noticeable gain worth the money?

any advice on where I should go next would be greatly appreciated..

Not really. You can up the boost a bit but you'll eventually blow your motor.

1. Get a T3 turbo - A/R .48/.60
2. Increase the boost
3. Get a ZEX 59300 camshaft

Stock internal - about 210-230 whp with a very good tune. This will depend on how healthy the motor is. You can push the limit but the
choice is yours.

Built bottom end - whp will be limited to the amount of money you have to spend.
