i got a 96 prelude vtec. got the intake, cam gears, plugs, wires all done. i want more power, but dont the most money since i am a college student. what should i do next for a good mod for performance (not annoying), reasonable price?

Well, you say "not annoying", so I'm assuming you don't like exhausts? You think they're "annoying"? Okay, well I would usually recommend either a header or underdrive pullies, but this time I'm gonna have to say a V-AFC is what you should get. I've seen dynos of a guy that gained about 28 hp across the board with that thing tuned.

not annoying as in super loud exhausts. i know i dont want apexi n1, 5 zigen, tanabe etc. i was thinking which exhaust should i get? greddy sp, rsr or apex ws?

irishpilot

the exhaust's that you mentioned are good, I would personally go with either the greddy or rsr units, since the ws wouldn't give any gains.

Vafc would be good
but until tuned it wont do much so youre looking around 250 for the part and another $100 roughly to tune it.
If you want to stay below that I would go with an AEM pulley set
I think some members are selling them for a decent price in the parts for sale section.
For your header I would get either the Greddy 4-2-1 or leptolude is building a 4-1... check NA forum for more info.

GReddy Evo is nice. Not too loud and it's pretty smooth.

i would rather choose the greddy sp. i was going to buy that today used for 250 but the deal fell. *i hate people who dont keep their deals*. so now im thinking, either headers or VAFC

Why no gains with the World-sport? It's bigger piping with a free flowing baffled muffler. Alot more flow than the stock one.

(I ask because I've got a WS rip off on my car. Sometimes people think it's stock, until I take off! )

OBDII workaround - oh and go with a Thermal R&D exhaust, they got the sound just right, smooth like butta........

i didnt really like the thermal sound. seems a bit raspy. yeah it does suck that i have OBDII. was thinking using a hondata on my ecu? will that be a big perfermance gain for me?
