Default bang for your buck-advice for my new H23-anything can help.

I just purchased an H23 and want to modify it. Not sure what route to go with it yet. I would like to hear what has worked well on this motor for the cash dropped for it. I am on a budget, so anyone with modifing experience with this motor let me know what parts worked for you. There are lots of headers, intakes, exhausts, cams, and misc. engine components out there. Drop me a line and let me know what was the best bang for your buck.
THANK A LOT

PEACE

1992 prelude Si
NOS dry kit
60 shot
magnaflo exhuast
msd 6a




the NOS dry kit cost around 530 bucks. but i would recommend you get a wet kit. and i would do the basic i/h/e first.


check out my website for more info on my setuphttp://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/371248/7

Try talking to Precisionh23.... I think thats his name on here? He has one of the most badass ludes i have ever seen.
Hmmm, as best as best bang for the buck, w/o nitrous or turbo would probably be a REALLY nice exhaust or header... I dont know how good the header would be w/o an aftermarket exhaust though.

Get a 5th gen CAI, the one w/ the 3" piping.

A set of Crower cams, which I think are available now.

Throw in some USDM H22 pistons and some spray, maybe a little headwork and you'd have one meeeeaaaaaan little car!

Get a short shifter. Remove p/s. Or get a Type-R sticker, they usually give you 15 whp.
