low budget mods for 2.2vtec?
Which 2.2 are you referring? One of the 'mods' would be replacing the Accord transmission with a Prelude transmission that has lower gears for better acceleration.

No need for a cam gear on these SOHC engines. Most aftermarket cams are designed to work within the stock cam timing ranges. Whether or not you need an ECU (Computer) tune will depend on the camshaft you buy. Also whether or not you do any other intake, valve train or fuel upgrades.
Just like with building a Chevy, adding power doesn't come cheap and most of the cheap parts aren't all that reliable.

Ya... Im seeing about 350 for cam and then most likely would need diff. Springs. So a 15-20 percent increase for about $600.... Thats a mid cam as i dont see a 4cyl doing well with a lopey idle
Whether or not you want to be that guy at the red light with a lopey idle Honda is the real question. They can be street-able when tuned properly. They just don't have that V8 lope to them. Although I have heard some pretty sweet sounding, all out, all motor I4 Honda engines. 
Really depends on what you are looking for. if your not out to make up for some inadequacies. These can be pretty fun cars to play around with. However, if you are looking to prop up your manhood within a 1/4" of throttle. Stick with the V8s.
