With a username like "hondagod", I figured you'd have it all under control.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out

If you decide to stay here, read up and search the archives before making a post like this. It's been asked 3854769437856 times, and everyone's tired of answering it.

It's this concept called research and reading. Worked great for me.

Theres a reason why no one will tell you exactly what to do, your possiblilites are numerous, if there was one right thing to do, everyone would have the same honda. Search for dyno's on intakes, and even headers. But keep in mind, that doing this or that to an engine, changes what your going to get for numbers. Typically a 4-1 header is for top end, but again, that doesn't always happen. Theres some good books at Barnes and Noble, on honda tunning. Read up. Key to remember is that, if you increase the intake side, you need to increase the exhaust side, its a never ending cycle. As for intakes, i like k&n filters, for the cleaning aspect, but i think you can clean bout all of them, some like cold air, but watch out for the deep puddles, if your gonna do an exhaust do all of it, that i'd just search companies, and see if you can find dyno's. Or just have one made up, or do it yourself if you got a welder.

Yes i have nothing better to do
