Default What should I do next?

Ok, well I finally installed my AEM CAI with some friends of mine and i forked out another 40 Dollars and got a new bypass valve off of ebay. The intake is nice, i can maybe feel the hp gain, unless that is just in my head. So what do you guys think i should do next. Im not big on exhuast at all just for the fact that i hate the noise it makes. Headers maybe? Tell me.....

What year/model Accord? Just go with either exhaust, or a header. The I/H/E package is the most important part when talking about bolt-ons.

Well how much money are you willing to spend?

As far as the exhaust, I think I got the headers installed after the CAI. However, I would put the money on some suspension work and/or tires and rims.

If you drive a manual, a short shift adapter is a very cheap mod, and you can install it yourself.

crono is correct, the basic bolt-on's are the quickest way to increase your car's overall power without spending too much cash. The noise issue's with an exhaust can be avoided by not cheaping out and getting a well-tuned, full cat-back system that doesnt buzz and make your car sound like you fed it too many burritos. RS-R makes a very nice, very quiet exhaust that'll run you about $600. Other cheaper options are the Apexi world sport, and I hear the greddy evo is decent. These are about $400 if you look around.

go with the greddy, its not bad, on my car i have a straight pipe from the header to the muffler, i wouldnt suggest you do that just for the noise thing, but yea that works, the greddy EVO, then on my other car i have an HKS...decent, nothing to brag about, i am trying to find a comptech or something like that if its good stuff...but yea, i would go with greddy, its good and cheaper than some of the others...
