Default 4dr 90 Integra Performance Help

So, I came here to ask help on my 90 Integra.
So I bought this car a while back ago for cheap ($750) and, from what I know, it's all stock.
I wrecked it a few weeks ago. (not my fault)
I just wanted to know what would be some good, but not freakishly expensive, modifications I could do to my car? (performance wise)
ANY help would be appreciated (:

CAI or SRI, header and exhaust system and of course suspension.

The green in the engine bay looks like A/C dye, if it is there is a leak.
, it is an R12 system so a retrofit would be needed to change it to the newer R134a system, [around $500 to do it properly], it would be cheaper to deleat it and spend the money on something else.

Pull the V/C and repaint it, it will add 20HP just by getting rid of ugly factor. 94

^I got 25HP when repainting my valve cover^ best ungrade ever!!

I didnt post to tell you what to do to ur car, considering its yours and you should do what you want. But i want to give you props cause 4 doors are so side!!!
They look so doubt. but I would agree with the "old fart" and say full exhaust, CAI (**** SRI) and suspension. Maybe throw some hawks on there and get a super mild cam if your feelin froggy.

fcm: Thanks, I appreciate the help A LOT!

DA: Thanks, I really wanted an LS but I saw this on the side of the road and thought why not you know? But I'm pretty that I at least have an integra.

scooter: I'm just waiting for the insurance to give me the money or fix my car already.

Also I noticed, when I drive the car around it would start to stall on occasion.
The rpm would spike a lot and the car would jerk quite a bit.
Also, after a drive there would be a lot of steam coming out of the radiator or engine.

Then the green staining may be coolant, something is definitely leaking.

Is it still the stock rad?

Check the top and bottom cap seams, leaking there is a common problem, [on stock rads] 94
