The best mod to increase overall power really is a turbo system. Any major power increase will need good tuning, and good tuning will go a LONG way to preventing a blown engine. If you have the facility to tune, you can go for big power- otherwise stick to bolt-ons.

If you do want to stay all motor though, look into a set of pistons from a DOHC ZC / D16A8 / D16A9. The P29 and PM7 pistons will raise your compression to 12.0:1 under the D16Z6 head, and then you can drop in a nice aggressive camshaft like the Crower stage 3 or the Zex 59300 for more power. Again, you WILL have to tune that setup to prevent engine death...
 
thanks lads it has to be ready in 7 months from now friend beat 1000 i couldn,t beat his type r civic
 
Well the weakest link in the Z6 is the connecting rods. Especially when it comes to turbos IMO.
