Couple of options but first you need money.
Option 1, Turbo it.-need I explain more.
Option 2, NA it. i.e. large lift cam, port polish, high compression pistons and a host of other things.

See these two threads for more info
For turbo---- https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=316373
For NA------ https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=180883

no, a header does not make your car loud, intake and exhasut do. if you already have an exhuast and you put on a header, you're gonna see better gains and you might hear the exhuast to be a bit "smoother"...you might not.

go suspension...automatic ludes are trash for speed.

but you could just buy boosted's turbo setup..that's some quickness right there.
