What's your budget? Exhaust system aren't really going to give you power mostly just for sound unless you run a single output or get into the more pricey ones. Maybe start with a header or pulleys or even a reflash.

I would definitely go with HONDATA REFLASH, but your budget is $400. Dont cheap out on an exhaust system. Save up and get a decent one. Therefore, you can go with high flow cat or pulleys.

I've always loved the sound of the Greddy Evo 2 on the TSX, but some note that it's pretty loud. And they are around $800-900, unless you can buy it off someone from the forums. You may look at the Pulleys, but I'm not sure how good you are with mechanics, heard they were pretty hard to install.
