Best for what purpose? Define "run well". Not much power to be made in any of the things you're looking to slap on. Unless you're looking to get it tuned, you're wasting your money.

I'm not worried about power, I'm worried about a reliable car that sounds clean

OP...what is your actual question? Sounds clean? That's based on opinion. The car already ran well when stock...and will continue to run well with bolt ons.

You just want to know which intake/header/exhaust is good? But not for power? Just sound and looks?

?????????

You're not gonna "just.. Have a more aggressive vtec", if you get all the flow work done and get the head ported it, then have it t00n'd it should make the engine preform better across the board. But if I'm not mistaken the flow on these d's and b's doesn't leave much room for improvement.. Maybe its the ports I'm not sure if its the whole design or what

A header will add like 1 hp, your car will not be faster. The only way to have a more aggressive crossover is to get a new set of cams, plus a programable computer so it can be tuned.
