you can do a ton. 50% of your decision is about power goals and the other 50% is using your own head on what you want to do to your car and not have everyone else tell you what to do.

^^

have you done much to enhance the exterior to your liking? If not, maybe now would be a good time to spend a little money that way.

As far as determining whether you should go SC or turbo, well, look here https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1024174

THere's even a thread dedicated to SC vs. Turbo, so that's probably what you're looking for. MOst people will probably say turbo, since you can usually make your money go the farthest. So many options if you go that route.

If you wanna boost dont waste your money on other parts that wont contribute to the turbo. Just start putting together a custom kit now or save for a full one.

How about a good alarm so all your hard work doesn't end up missing one night? It's become an epidemic. And "suspension upgrades" is a little vauge, I was gonna suggest some specifics but I don't know what you have already.

well for specifics i have a buddy club spec coilovers, greddy header, apexi noir exhaust, team dynamics wheels, wilwood bbk, rear disc conv and a couple other cosmetic upgrades.
no it wasnt that harsh, i have read worse lol.
its funny you said an alarm system cause i went out a bought a clifford paging alarm today. I think i am going to start peicing together a turbo kit. just need to do some research before i start it.

If i were to PnP my head should i also get a tune? and What does a valve job mean?
