If you had to start somewhere then I'd suggest intake first, since ts usually easier to do and cost less, and you are usually saving something like 2 kg on the front from taking out the resonator. But if you are looking for lower to mid range gains, I recommand a modified airbox style of intake, comptech, gruppe-m and mugen makes them. I'd avoid the Long tube CAI (eg: injen) because you'd lose some power/torque At lower rpm's.

The rice burner sound is mostly from the exhaust/muffler. So no one outside will be able to tell if you don't install a pair of fart cannons


Ps: I'm still searching for a (cost effective) way to lower the VTEC engagement point of te CL9 k24a3... The redline is like 6800-7000 rpm.. So I'm not even sure the vtec did anything since ivtec engages at 6000rpm. Iirc the CU2 which runs k24z3 the vtec engagement is about 1000 rpm lower on average... Which sounds more useful
To me
What effect does this have on the Euro? I have been reading up on this and I keep seeing that it sounds better, is that true?

And thanks for all the help guys! I'm currently having the car detailed and serviced, I'll post a couple of pics when I get it back mid week
