Get rid of your subs, carpeting, A/C, rear speakers, remove deadening materials (tar underneath carpets), remove back seats, etc.

Header and complete exhaust seem to be the best bet but I don't know about $400. You'll need to be a good shopper.

Headers alone cost $197 (OBX Type R), Exhaust costs ($228 for *shivers* Tsudo)...that's roughly $400.

So you have a 94 Accord...you can definately get this deal under 400. OBX prolly for 140-150. Exhaust for around 180-200.

Actually, I read something funny off the Civic Forum...mind you this is for the k20a2 engine block...tuned differently from our k24a4 block

Together, the header and cat back are good for 8.6 hp, according to DC Sports. However, add DC's cold-air intake system and the power gain shoots up to over 22 horses, with almost a 10 hp average gain from 3000 to redline. Clearly, intake, not exhaust, is the K20A2's biggest shortcoming from the factory.

Revert to no power steering and take out the A/C. Take out as much weight as possible... then put a new exhaust and new headers on.

you could push your car off a cliff, that would make it go faster, and it would be free!
