Default First Honda and need some guidance...

Well, I am now the proud owner of a '98 2-dr, 4-cylinder, auto transmission, Accord XE and am loving it. However, there are a bunch of individuals who own the v-6/6 cylinder models of not only my car, but of the ever popular Eclipses and Neons and what not... Seeing as I've not worked on an electronic fuel injected car before (only on old carburated camaros and what not), I've been led to believe that there is only so much you can do before having to adjust your electronics. I'd rather stay away from that as much as possible, while still being able to get enough horsepower and torque to beat the stock v-6's around. Anyone have any ideas? Also, what are good brands for headers, and what do I need to stay away from?

H22 swap or Turbo up to about 8-10psi on stock internals....I just bought a FASTER car. I have a CL type S that is cranking nearly 300hp (intake and headers) and it just freaking flies........

Um, you're typical AEM cold air intake will do. I have a '99 and Eibach springs helped out so much. It just started getting cold at night these last few days here in phoenix so my intake's startin to make this beautiful whistling sound. I love it
