Default 00 ex 5 spd perf. questions

Hey guys i love my accord but with the 2.3 vtec it feels a little underpowered. looking to add some significant power. intake, exhaust what brands should i chose for best results? im gonna go forced induction, but keep the boost low like 5-7 lbs. I found a turbonetics kit on tas for 2799 and was wondering if its a good system to go with? also i would like to know what other parts i should get to make it a reliable setup. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. Heres some pics but these are before i put the suspension kit on it. i got a kit with a 1.5 inch drop.

If you are going to boost it, don't bother buying exhaust components or intake yet. They will have to work with the turbo set up. I believe turbonetics is out of business now so I doubt there will be any tech support.

The difference between the PSPEC one and an adpater are huge. Click the link in my sig and search "DIY Short Shifter" and there should be a write up from me on how to remove the stock shift linkage.
