Default '04 accord upgrades

HI, I'm new to this forum( this is my first post) and I was wondering if you guys can help me out. My wife has a '04 coupe with the 2.4L engine/AT and I've been looking for stuff to tweak it up some and I can't seem to find much at all. I would like to find a 4to1 header and cat back dual exhaust, maybe some bigger sway bars and I'm not sure about the honda PCM, does it use a prom or flash program? This is my first Honda, but it won't be the last- this car is sweet. Thanks for any help you can offer.
Bruce

as for duals on a 4 cyl, it's rather pointless...you will see more power with a single exhaust setup...

Yes a Dual Exhaust on a 4cyl is pointless and you will actually loose power basically it is only for looks. I like how they look but don't like the loosing power part.

Yea, I know you will lose a little, but the working dual tips are because she thinks it looks cool. the rest of the mods are for real though. From looking at all the other topics and responses, you guys really seem to know your stuff here. Here is another dumb question- being a lifetime GM guy, this car seems to have wayyy overboosted steering and brake assist, is this normal for all hondas or just this model? Last question for now- What do you guys think of the new Ridgeline? I haven't driven one yet, but the truck looks pretty good at first glance.
