easier would be losing weight...

 

intake, exhaust, flywheel. I have heard that these 3 things will add 10 hp. The intake and exhaust should add around 5-7hp and the lightened flywheel will reduce tranny loss (although no actual HP is "made", less is lost in transfer). These are not cheap mods. Comptech exhaust is $1000+, intake is $200 on a cheap day on ebay, flywheel is a couple hundred, and if you can install it yourself, thats it, if not another $600-700 in labor.

In all seriousness.... http://www.turbonator.com/

 

try a kn filter , so they claim
40 bux shipped

 

resonator removal.....47 bucks
injen intake on ebay.....96 bucks
TiR test pipe.....115 bucks
Rick's Header.....700ish? bucks



there ya go

 

How does your car sound with the test pipe and no resonnator? Is it louder then with just the resonnator removed?

 

Try catless exhaust & AEM V2 intake. Might net 10 hp, but will most deffinately net 8+ tq... which matters more

 

Dont forget to take the spare & tools out. Weight loss is just as good as added hp.

 

car doesn't need more octane and more hp is impossible without NOS or forcing air in. thank god for turbos.

 

there is also a hondata intake manifold heat gasket, for around 60 bucks it supposedly adds 6 or so hp, and then add an intake, exhaust, header and bamm!!!!! More than what you were looking for...

Then you could even go for a VAFC if you don't want to spend the money on a stand alone
