Performance modifications without the noise ??

Being how noisy the R can be at high speeds, are there any significant performance modifications that can be done with minimal to no noise increases ??

You can put some dynomat in your car, and then mod. Or put a silencer on your exhaust.

Modify the driver.

Attend an Autocross or HPDE or as many as you can afford.

Just curious. Why would you want to do mods and not have some nice "noise" as you call it? I love the sound my I/H/E made on my Accord versus stock. It actually sounds like it can have some power (Stock SOHC Vtec

. Just my $.02 thats all.
