don't get it confused... it is only 165-170 whp and 200hp at the flywheel. I would start with the basics... I/H/E, or a Toda kit.. that will put you at around 220 or so whp.

Injen intake: $250
Hondata Reflash: $450
Jackson racing Header: $400
Tanabe Racing Medallion Exhaust: $550

Equals mid to low 14's in uarter mile

Worth it?

Can you let me in on where you got the Hondata upgrade for 450 bones?

And did you get the 8,400 redline?

THe injen cai is grat hasnt been beaten yet,the hondata is great but i prefer the mugen n1 ecu i have better low end torque and explosive mid-range and high end power over hondata 4800 vtec activation 9000 rpm redline(Ecu olny compatible with itr cams,and get some mugen double valvesprings)I perfer the comptech race headers all around better header than jackson's and the tanabe is olny a 60mm exhaust you need a 2.5 inch or a 65mm like t1r or comptech or get custom like i did and use the muffler of your choice i went apexi turbo muffler car sounds raw.I ordered my toda n2 cams,valve springs,ecu,and headgasket cant wait till they are installed
