Total spent on modifying the engine was about $15k Problem with with trying to get a lot of power, is that the more you get, the more it costs to get a little more. Changing your head will change the top of the combustion chamber, and of course the dimensions and shapes of the valves and intake and exhaust channels, but the real important thing to making more boost is the cylinder walls, your crankshaft, and your rods.

I guess that's the manifold i'll have to go with even though it's around $400. I swear a couple months back I saw uneven manifolds on ebay for $315, oh well...... I've got 3 cars out on the car lot I'm trying to sell, so as soon as I sell one I will have some $$$ to start buying parts.....As for the exaust, its a single pipe from the header that splits into 2 pipes near the back of the car. Figured it would look better filling in both holes in the rear bumper.....

I found this site that has these different downpipes for honda/acura. Not sure which one I would need but I'm just gonna post the link so I don't forget it:

I also edited my first post (main list) and added the Greddy E-Manage Ultimate. A lot of people have recommended it and after reading about it, it sounds like the best way to go.
