Default Header and Exhaust Suggestions

Hey guys, I am brand new to this forum today great find for sure. I am a owner of a accord ex coupe five speed 2002 with the v-tec 2.3 and i was looking into a full exhaust system to help the car breathe a little better. I am looking to spend around 1000 for everything. Any suggestions because i brandnew to the import world i have always ran domestics but i switch because this is way to much fun anymore. I have heard the coil is weak and i should think about upgrading is this true ?

First... Welcome to the forum....

Secondly... $1000 for the exhaust?

I,H,E.. a decent setup would run far less for a grand... But hey more money the better.

Not sure how much your coils run for... I have a 98.

Agreed... But it is his preference... He can go the cheap(er) route and still get the bang for the buck.

An AEM short ram can be for for $110 shipped... coil... like ignition coil? They wear out, yes; weak, no. Not recommended to get an MSD or like ignition (since your from the domestic crowd), doesn't do much for a Honda.

I got an AEM cold air intake for my 99 two days ago and it was only $145 and $15 for shipping on eBay!
I'm freakin satisfied, it seriously sounds like a muscle car now
