^^^Dude, this is completely off-topic. Make your own thread or do a search. $129 for anything on this car is probably the cheapest part you are going to find, ARC's heat shield for the fuse box is like triple that.\
Oh yeah, and to the OP, ask this question in the JDM forum if you're going JDM/NA with your car, most of the NA guys are in that forum and we all know about JDM parts. As far as your three companies, for power it goes J's > Spoon > Mugen, Amuse also makes nice power as does ASM, but you're gonna shell out major bucks for those two companies for little to no more performance figures.
I don't know when this all turned into a snorkle vs. CAI discussion, but basically the snorkle works better in real-world driving where the CAI will show better gains on a dyno, although one guy said that just by installing a Spoon snorkle/filter and gutting his stock box he picked up 5-6whp.

J's makes the most power, than Spoon, and then Mugen (but J's did a stroked motor to 2.3l). BTW these are based on the Factory claims in Hyper Rev.
If you want to be JDM and have the most HP you better go make a copy of the Top Fuel Car (Japanese Tuner). Their car runs a Turbo/ NO2 set up, but they are making more than twice the power of Mugen, J's and Spoon.
BTW... most tuners (not all, but most) in Japan dont test their cars on dyno's they test them on the track so they are all probably estimated HP figures.
