Welcome to the forums. Great car. Those mods are a good start for the things you mentioned. You'll probably want to lower it eventually too. I don't have any sound clips or video, but I'm sure someone else can help with that.

So you want speed you say...
Go to the engine forum and there you will find some of our speed people..one word from me is to start doing work on your ignition program, your going to need hot spark down the road real soon..

u got the wrong model to try and make fast. For the amt of money you are going to spend to make that I4 fast you could have got a V6 car and installed a 3.5L block from an 04 or older acura MDX and some CL-S cams. You would be close to 270HP with just that setup

don't worry, you didn't get the wrong model. There may be easier motors and cars to make fast, but the honda 4 cyl has plenty of potential to be a powerful and small engine.

I've never been a big fan of larger engines in FWD cars anyways. If you can get some decent power out of a small engine, your FWD car will handle much better.

You could do a lot worse than listen to mbo1985 (Matt).

What he says about I4 vs V6 and FWD/bhp is excellent advice.
