Ill be nice, and put it gently...searching will be your best friend....use it wisely or get flammed really fast.

Start with your suspension, the stock H22 puts out some nice power, but get your suspension to where you wnt it so you can handle the car better...

Others will have mixed opinions about suspension/performance, just do what you want to your car, so it can be yours
get my point?

I got a generic CAI for 20 bucks just for now and it was totally worth the it to hear your VTEC. I found a Tanabe G Power Catback for $200 so I jumped on it. Just look around and search used cause you can find crazy deals. I think you should get the Tein SS to have an awesome drop only if you got $900. Don't go cheap on springs or shocks, you will regret it. Some the $ and do it right.

well, when i first got my lude, the last thing i cared about was suspension...so im guessing you are looking for performance...so go with...
CAI
Exhaust
Now, depending on if you want to go turbo or continue with NA will then bring you to the next point, because if you plan on going turbo, it is a wate of money to get ehaders...ya see?

and a few tips, like check ebay for some generic INtake stuff for 20 oe 30 bucks like the other guy said, it is virtually the same deal, but cheaper and yes, the vtec sounds beautiful!!! also for exhaust...go to a local muffler place and get the to custom mandrel bend some 2.25 inch piping to fir your car, then go on ebay find a decent universal muffler and you are done...and do not plan oin going turbo or talk about it until you know the consequences and everything else....high compression and weak ring lands will leave you pretty unhappy to be blunt...good luck
