Default 88 CRX mods?

Just picked up a stock 88 CRX with ITR shocks/springs.

Weekend Mods:
AEM intake
DC header
Strut bars
Moving Battery
RPM tach install
Paint!

Should be a good time. Hope to have pics!

Question: What kind of performance does this car have with these mods? wHp, cornering, ex.

Thanks

well, i think the paint will add something like 22.1 horses or something like that.

jk, the suspension looks decent, but i know a guy with a dx that did a similar intake and header, didn't help his car much, like 3 horses max, but it "sounded" louder. since you have the parts, might as well throw them on, but go for an mpfi conversion or a d16 engine swap. mpfi conversions arent pricey, like 70 bucks if you know what you're doing.
