ty I gotta replace the head gasket and get the valves cleaned. I just put some racing spark plugs and plug wiring and just wrapped the headers. I am not going for racing performance at all just more drivability i will probably DIY a CAI and put a cleaner exhaust. I just want this bitch to breathe good!

Want it to breathe good? Do an MPFI swap!!!! The only mod that you can build open with a DPFI engine. Here: http://hybrid2.honda-perf.org/tech/4gdxtozc.html
