Need more horsepower
Hey guys. I'm in desperate need for some more power. I have Injen CAI and Comptech headers. I'm getting Hondata this tuesday. Test pipe and Skunk2 Exhaust this weekend. I still know i'm gonna be only putting down about 190 to the wheels seeing that my car is automatic. What else can i do to gain some more horsepower? I'm looking at skunk2 engine parts, but not really sure what would give me the most power. If anyone could help that would be really helpful. Thanks.

injen CAI is fine .. ~ comptech hearder is nice but performancewise .. it's worse then DC sports ~ if u got the money to burn u might wanna consider DC or some JDM blings ~although u gonna get hondata .. but u might wanna consider a custom turbo system or go for nox .. ~ it's relatively good for AT ~ cuz u can just boost all the way and not worry abt shifting..
btw .. cometech has more parts for pulley and flywheel .. either one of them ... cant remeber rite now

that depends on which way u wanna go
first buy a RSX-S turbo kit and replace ur head with a K20A2 and then u can use the KPro and hook on the turbo kit w/o the DBW
or u can make a custom one which save u the money from buying a new head but u have to figure out which ECU or piggyback (spelling?) device u gonna use with it ..
