+1 on the boost
or there's always nitrous
Personally I wouldn't bother investing in a D15b7 for long term performance unless you can piece together a junk yard turbo for cheap.

d16z6 head w/ intake the works. Then maybe turbo the mini me

... make sure to get the ex/si tranny too for the shorter gears

figure out how much it's gonna cost you and you'll gain ~30 HP from the swap (depending on head & compression)
Then take that money, add a little more for a home made turbo setup and you'll make way more power.
mini-me = more reliable though
