invest in a header and test pipe combo, even with a dc header the two should yield 7-10 whp.

Where the hell did u get 7-10 whp from? Try 3 if you're lucky, and that's if your powerband stays as steady as stock.

for the price of an exhaust u can safely run a 50-75 wet shot of nitrous and get 10 times more power than with bolt ons, however research and learn how to use it properly first

oh ok this is not a good night. u need exhaust flow for n2o any way if u get a quite exhaust like an apexi or we it wont be loud. and who said any thing about a dc header its like this import tuner gets negative gains on some products like the upgrade to the s15 turbo and then addin the mass air flow from a 300 zx but then it gets more in the long run by adding a intercoler and hollowin out the cat hum i guess i am an idiot w/e ill just let mark rasberry work on my car he had a k20 in a 89 hatch back and always has something runnin 7s in teh 1/8 how many of yall can say that

Quit whoring.... posting consecutively every 3 minutes is made even more pointless when you forget how to punctuate your grammar. It will get this thread locked.

Then refill the tank again, and again, and again until you have spent a shitload of money. I hate it when everybody says nitrous is the cheapest route, it gets very costly in the long run.

Have your throttle body bored out if you want to go that route, it's way cheaper than an over priced aftermarket one.

I wouldn't worry about upgrading the throttle body until you have
headwork done or already have the basic bolt-ons first.

I assume you mean quiet exhaust

Well, APEXi exhaust isn't the quietist exhaust.

Ever heard of the n1 exhaust

Back on topic.......I just got my Edelbrock 70mm TB, and it's very good quality and already has a calibrated TPS attached. It was $325, I believe...

upgrading your throttle body without doing headwork will do little to nothing for the h22. port and polish the head, get a new intake manifold, some cams, and bump cr, and then we can talk TB's...

just go with intake, header, exhaust, hi flow cat, pullies, and fuel management. should get you around 185 whp depending on the parts/tuner.

i've been hearing good things about the emanage, which is a good option if you don't want to swap to an obdI ecu and run hondata.

mattspivey: it's called punctuation, please use it.
