headers: theres a large range of aftermarket headers. for example dc sports 4-2-1 headers.

exhaust: you already have one? maybe check what cat you have. i think the most unrestrictive cat out there would be the metal cat? mandrel bent exhausts are less restrictive then press bent ones.

after that i wreckon you should go get urself a hondata and a tune from dynodave. or if you wanted to go the cost effective way to avoid buying a hondata ecu, probs have to get a jumper harness and convert ur ecu to obd1 from ur obd2a (if your h22a is a later model) setting. or maybe ur h22a is obd1 and if so, forget what i was rantin on about! haha

after that i wreckon you could easily achieve atleast 120-125kw atw.
From what i've been reading, shunk2 manifold don't perform as well as compare to the OEM. If you van get a hold of an Euro R manifold, then you'll be sweet. They give good gains and look like the type R manifolds on a b18c type R. Its an OEm product so you cant go wrong

As for headers, spend the extra money now and save in the long run. Get SMPS, RMF or Camp1320.

Then move on to a ported head. Give it more air flow.

Get a hondata and get dynodave to tune the car. You should be able to make anywhere from 125-135kw depending on dyno.
