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

RE: i need 20 hp cheap and easy

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.

RE: i need 20 hp cheap and easy

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

Quote:

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!
