Default What should I get next?

Ok I'm about to move out of the house and in with my girl. and the added bills (considering now I pay for nothing except my cell) and such will really be putting a dent in the prelude's allmotor/nitrous plans. Before I move out I've got enough saved to be able to comfortably spend some money on a last upgrade for the prelude for a while. I want it to be performance oriented.

So which do you think would be the best/funnest upgrade out of the list. Or you can throw in new ideas. I have a M2B4 lsd tranny that will be going in soon, so I'll have LSD with any of these choices.

1.) RMF/DTR header

2.) 4.64 final drive, carbon coated synchros, and h23 5th gear in the M2B4. There's a special going on right now for $500 for the final drive, it'll offer a 9% decrease in every gear, which they tell me will mean a 9% increase in torque. And I figure with a 9% reduction in the H23 5th gear it'll come out to 5th being around the same as a stock H22 5th.

3.) Save up some more money and get a built head with some nice high end camshafts. Not sure how my nitrous will like the camshafts though.

4.) Euro-R manifold and a velocity stack intake.

already have something to tune your car with? if not, stay away from cams until you do, the final drive i think would be your best bet. my 2 cents

No it's the infinitude 4.64 final drive. Never heard of the MFactory one. Is it better and about the same price?

ECU + tune should cost $300-$400

Spend the rest on your girlfriend. She desirves it for letting you shack up with her.
