1. Tires (falken Azenis)

2. CAI (AEM)

3. coil-overs + sway bar (tein ss + itr)

4. Hondata reflash #4

that puts you at about $2500

Thats your best bet right there. You get some power, but also improve your car to take the additional power.

what are you using the car for? street? road racing? auto-x? drag?


if I can do it all over again I would get:

1) tires (again, which tire depends on your needs)
2) brake pads/line/fluid (as the stock ones stayed mushy 2 days after an HDPE )
3) <u>LSD/final drive</u>/clutch/flywheel
4) suspension
5) seats (stock ones are adequate for the street but they're too slippery and heavy

i feel the car is adequately quick in stock form so IMHO i would leave power mods last.
