Default Engine/Cosmetic help

Okay guys i need your honest opinions...I bought a 91 Accord LX 2 door 5 Spd ablut 1 1/2 months ago. I'm doing some stuff tothe performance (CAI, New Muffler, ) and cosmetics (tinting, clear corners)...Im prob never gonna touch the rear tail lights, but what i want is opinions on what i can do to my engine for performance that isnt ungodly expensive. If it was all body it would be total rice and I DEFINITELY dont want that. The problem is that i can't afford stuff like h22 engines and turbos. Plz any suggestions would be great!

The basics.
Intake/Header/Exhaust

then you can dip into a nitrous kit or maybe a cam from http://www.webcaminc.net

there are also pulleys, cam gears, etc

sell your muffler and buy yourself a full catback exhaust system, you'll actually gain a couple hp. mufflers just make noise.

you can also look into a dc sports 4-2-1 header.

thanks man. I was looking into that. I have a brand new exhaust on my car but it looks like it was done by Honda and was a replica of the stock one.....so selling that would get me a lil more $$$$ and a catback would be awesome to have
