Default $200 dollars-Going to the track next friday-what to get for performance?

sup guys? i have a 92' Integra RS, all I have in it is an intake. Today (friday) my friends told me by surprise that they are all going to the track to see what times they are all gonna get.
So we all went to the track but when we got there, it started raining, damn.

Anyways, there is always next friday.
All I have is $200 dollars and I would like to put something in, performance wise. what should i get??? or what can I get for $200 bucks???
I was thinking a Cat-back exhaust system?? should I gut out the cat???

another thing is that I was thinking about some Cam Gears?? are they really worth it?? did some of you notice a good gain???

I need new motor mounts, do you guys know for how much they going for???

All right guys, well, to tell you the truth I really have $400 dollars, but I don't want to waste them all at once,.. I also need to find a rear bumper and fix the damage rear and repaint the whole car.......
well, anyways, thanks all you guys that reply with helpful comments and opinions.
Peace.

Are you talking about a drag strip or circuit? With either one, I'd take out everything that is not needed like the rear seats, passenger seat, spare tire, jack, etc...

what gains should i expect with only a Cat back exhaust system??? 10hp maybe?? should I gut out the cat or leave it as is???
I'm not gonna buy headers since i'm gonna turbo it in a few months.

I don't really want to have a really fast Integra for only this friday. hmmm, did I said that right?? just any simple bolt on would do for me for only this friday.
I just want to see what kind of time I can get.

thanks.

yep,... I got more money, but I just don't want to spend them all in simple performance.
like I said, I gotta fix my messed up exterior.

the thing is that I desided to atleast put around $200 or maybe up to $400 dollars in performance,.. simply because i don't want to look like 'the slowest car there' you feel me?

k..here's some advice...... if your tires are still pretty good, then roll on those.... but i'm assuming your going to the drag strip..... gut out your car and see how you do from there. Save your $200 cause after you leave the track..your going to want to do this and that, so one thing at a time. save the money tho for something more worth wild! NOS???? lol

sounds like your confused

just take the car out there as it is....anything u do for 200 or 300 will not make that big a diffrence on yoru times, unlessu know how to drive on the trrack.....so go learn some stuff about launching and then make some decisons on what u want to do...im thinking u will hit 16.4/5

Get a test pipe. I can't think of anything you can do as fast or as cheap as temporarily ditching that smothering stock cat.
