Cams and a tune. Not "cheap" but relatively inexpensive.
Should be less than what you paid for all your bolt-ons. And will net you more gains than your other mods.
OR you could get a bigger throttle body and port match the IM. Cheaper than the cams, but you won't gain as much.

If u live in a place that doesn't have crazy strick emissions laws than convert to OBD1 and tune that bad boy.. and/or get some ITR or CTR cams for now.

Any suspension mods?
How bout hondata intake manifold gasket? Its $50 and it'll get you like 3-5 horsepower in the top end.
Or a super light flywheel to go with the clutch
Or hx rims
What do you have in mind?

hahaha I saw he was from LA and the first thing I noticed was that he didnt have an alarm system of any sort. The OP's real question should be "How many days do you guys think I have until my EM1 gets stolen?" I live in upstate NY where car theft doesnt really happen and even I have a two way pager system and fuel cut off switch.
how would an intake manifold gasket help gain 3~5 HP at top end? Are you refering to 3 HP gained at red line? Lower intake charge air temperature may be contributing to denser air at all engine speed.

For power i'd say get rid of the dc headers and go with some 5zigen headers. Also some skunk2 cams stage 1 or 2. Maybe a stage 2 clutch.
Or you could think about suspension.
Or for common sense, take car of security for your car. I know where i live em1s get stolen all the time.

if you truly live in compton or anywhere in CA man security should be your number one priority, i swear i see at least 2 ppl a week on here from CA getting there stuff ganked. After that get some CTR pistons and some cams/gears and a chip/tune
Yeah I didn't even think to look at the OP location when I posted. If I lived in LA I would for sho get a LoJack or some sort of GPS, hell I have the Viper GPS on my civic now. Albuquerque is a dangerous place for H/A's, lol..
