What should I do next?
Sup everybody I just joined Honda-tech. I have a red 1999 Integra LS. Its my baby I love it and treat it like a person, which I'm sure others do to (or at least I hope). Im 16 years old. So far this is what I've done to "The Teg":
-AEM Cold Air Intake
-Some red and carbon fiber pedals
-A chrome shift ****
-Chrome tailights
-Clear bumper lenses
-APC fog lights (I know...American product on foreign car...but hey, thats all Advanced Auto Parts had that day)
-Hyper white headlights
Mostly everything has been for looks. Soon I want to start doing some performance things but it will take me a while to save up the $$. I dont plan on racing it a LOT but like when ppl try to **** with me at stoplights and stuff I dont wanna lose u know. Well just give me some ideas of what u think I should do next for performance or styling....thanx

Well, first of all I suggest you stop racing on the street (if you are, that is). Losing your license wouldn't be cool. 
Killing someone would be worse.
You should look into getting a header and an exhaust system. DC sports make a good header for the money...I suggest 4-1 for good top-end power. Any subtle exhaust system (Apex'i WS, RSR) is good for power AND not getting cops' attention.
After that I suggest cams, or sell your intake and header for a turbo kit.
Good luck!

Yeah Im not racin it on the streets cuz I think thats retarted I just dont feel like messing with the law. I mean I've only raced like once but sometimes me and my friends will like go at it a little in the middle of the night or something on a backroad but other than that...
Well this is gonna sound stupid but what is a header?

Damn, have you got some reading to do! 
It replaces your exhaust manifold, allowing the exhaust gases easier travel out of the combustion chamber...it is also much nicer looking than a rusty old OEM exhaust manifold...
Do a search on 'header', 'exhaust', 'non vtec cams.'
My best advice to you is read, read, READ! Don't buy ANYTHING until you've researched it! ..a LOT!
