Also a free mod is removal of the stock intake resonator. It is similar to the CT-E icebox, not as good but a start.

If you want to spend a lot (about $700) save up for the Hondata reflash.

Good luck!

Keep it stock. That's the best bang for the buck mod and least troublesome.

Less money- Intake or Rear Sway Bar
More money- Hondata hands down. Everyone will say that.
