Default Got a 03 rsx base model..pro...con

Hey I just got a 03 rsx base model 5 speed. I would like to kno what are the pro/cons with it?
Is it worth putting some headers or intake or exhaust?
It has 94xxxK miles and runs good.

Only thing is when its idling, I hear this little wisteling ar wining noise. When I press the clutch, its gone. Then when I let go off clutch, it does it again. Its not loud but its weird. Baybe I'll start with new tranny fluid.
