You said you have done:

*Intake
*Exhaust - Have you completed the exhaust? (Header,hi-flow cat,muffler and 2 1/2" piping)

I would install a:

* Zex Cam 59300 - PM 'Mystery' he has one he might be able to sell ya.

* After market ECU

Then Dyno tune.

one of my mates had your exact same setup nisboi40 and he had full exhaust from headers back with good cat and catback and he also wanted extra mods... i would personally not go with a ecu and tune because for the money to spend the power gains is not worth it for the money... i would just next get a good cold air induction CAI which is what we got for my mate and it was great!, and maybe some good leads and plugs and advance the timing if it hasnt been done, with those mods you got and it will be perfect and alot more responsive.. this way it will be cheaper and better without having to spend big dollars for so much no worth it gains!
you can get good cai's from ebay us.. plugs leads from repco, auto 1, e.t.c
cheers hope my previous experiences help

They do work bro but not by anything like that..

About a 2 HP gain over the stock filter that comes with the GReddy Kit

NOS...2 bottles

And make sure to upgrade your exhaust manifold as well as your passenger side floor pan...

Seriously man...search..I'm SURE mods for d16y's have been covered in the past.

Think breathing, think drive-train..

Lightened flywheel, heavy duty clutch, cams, weight reduction in the form of knocking out your sound deadening and removing interior, disconnect your aircon belt...and most importantly..run only on half or less than half a tank of fuel at all times..

You'll be running 16 sec 1/4s all day =)

There's heaps on here.

When you run out,http://d-series.org/,the engine numbers are different but the engines are the same.
