i was reffering to the intake/exhuast combo....no need to be a dick because youre an "expert" on gen 5's
would you suggest that injen intake that you used over the TRD filter? mr expert?
Uh, I wasn't being a dick. I was telling it like it is. And an intake/exhaust combo will still not yield any viable power.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.
Sorry CorCamry but I'm siding with Mike, a Intake/Exhaust combo will not produce enough power to be noticeable. Maybe 2-4hp at most but not enough to be a viable performance boost, sometimes you even lose power if you didn't mod it correctly. That is why most of the cars that are modded seriously have a heat shield or box around the intake to diminish hot air sucking into the intake from the engine. Mike is only saying those things because he's done it before and knows the outcome. That's why he sold his intake, am I correct Mike?
If you want to have more power, it won't be a simple bolt-on job.
If I had time, money, and a serious face, I would do the following to boost power for my car without the use of any superchargers or turbos.
Port and Polish
Titanium pistons and rods.
Titanium header
Performance springs
Iridium spark plugs
New ground wirings
etc.
It'll probably cost around $4k-6k for a job like this, but you might end up from 158hp to 190-210hp. It's a estimate so it ain't official.

how do you plan on making +200 hp without added air and fuel being forced into the engine???????
no doubt you will need all listed if you go FI.

I was thinking the same thing but didn't respond so that this thread would die. Oh well. The mods listed would be a huge waste of money without supporting mods.
I didn't wanted to list the whole thing, that's why I put the "etc" at the end. I also noticed I worded it wrong, I meant your HP will rise from 158hp to 190-210hp, so a good 40-50hp raise.

Actually, the entire list is pretty much a joke...
