Default Cheap HP and performance gains???

I have a small budget and I'm trying to sup up my accord. I have a K&N filter, Tranmission oil cooler, Performance plugs, and strut brace bars. I am also getting Bosch wires, and some type of cold air intake. I am leaning away from an underdrive pully because my car has distributor problems (as many accords do) and am unwilling to sacrafic electricity. Anyone have any cheap suggestions? Something like a quiter exhaust system (I'd hate to go deaf while I drive) or high flow cat or performance anti-sway bars? I know about these things but finding something within my budget is tough.
<U></U>
When the going gets tough, the smart down-shift.

I'm not too psyched about putting in NOS. I heard it seriously messes up trannies, and mine is going already. Besides, I'll probebly overdue on it and blow a gasket or something with the way I drive. And a NOS system is a little too much money for me at this point. Anything else?

My BONE STOCK F22 VTEC motor handled 136shot of NOS and pulled a 12.71@109.89mph in the quarter mile. Accord motors are strong if you know how to tune them. It was a direct port system by the way.
This can beat a lot of V8's with this set up.

n20 runs about the same price as a full exhaust system.
a high flow cat will do nothing for you as far as performance gains.
get a nice cai that is probably the best bang for the buck well as far as bolt-on's in your price range.
