change that restrictive exhaust also if you are getting cams. get a good tune too.

look and see if it has an external coil, if not upgrade the ignition system to that and better wires first. Honda internal coils are very restrictive and hold the motor back.

vtec wont be louder because you put cams.
No one cares how loud is their vtec. the turbo spooling and blow off valve(thats what im talking about)

yep, but if you're going to go turbo only to hear the bov and spool, then go out and buy a fake FMIC and electronic bov sound maker. Rice

this is tricky. weight loss=hp, but there's not much more weight you can loose that will make a significant difference in that hatch.

so what do you mean by cheap and what do you mean by easy to install? i consider a custom geared trans easy to install. but only stickers are cheap to me... (97% broke)
