want opinions on parts
i want more hp right now i have a 99 si with aem v-2, header, exhaust. noticed a big gain when i got the intake. if i get cams would skunk 2 stage 2 give me a good boost along with an intake manifold maybe a dh racing throttle body. also is it worth it to get one of the higher dollar headers i see on honda-tech. thanks in advance.

when i was in the beginnning i noticed my skunk2 mani made alot better midrange response. i highly recommend getting something to tune your car with, thats were you will get your best gain.

i would get a smsp header and skunk2 cams and you would have to get it tuned if you dont want to get it tuned then dont even bother with moding the car any farther. So get a hondata and get some real HP.

Change your AEM V2 out for the V1 2.75" intake on that car and it will make less noise but should gain you a little more power. V2's didn't perform as well as the older V1's do typically. If you get cams go with the Skunk stage 1 (not pro), Toda A, RM21, BC 3, Blox A, type of cam, they're all good for your application. Unless you upgrade your cams, do not upgrade your intake manifold or you will lose power. The stock b16a manifold is pretty decent. Stock throttle body is fine, no real advantage to go larger for your application. Best high dollar header for you would be the TODA header IF you have the money.
