^^ How many headers do you want him to get?

Injen Cai and a cat back exhast should bring you to mid 14's. Might as well finish it off and get a race header at that point though and that should bring you to low 14's.

The basics: Intake, Exhaust, Header, and Hondata.

I just witnessed a 02 RSX-S run 12.7 with open exhaust, intake, hondata 4, and slicks on the front wheels.

The header is a tricky part since I don't think its worth the money, but some people swear by it. Best bang for the buck is Hondata by far though.

i have my mind set on a injen c.a.i for sure
as far as exhaust ive heard things about comptech, but i want a nice exhaust that dont sound ricey and i want the tip to look stock,anyone have any recomendations?
now the race header it sounds good and all
but it eliminates the cat, the car can run shitty and wont pass emisions its a pain in the ***
i don't think ill go through with that
now for hondata, by installing hondata , am i risking anything to my engine with hondata tuning?
and is there anywhere in the chicago land area that can tune hondata professionally?
because i am intrested in hondata...
thanks

How do you figure changing the header is not worth the money?

I don't have kpro but im guessing w/o KPRO then all bolt on's aren't as cost effective. Am I right or..?

Kpro is the way to go. Allows you to optimize your f/r for more power.
