6K is not as bad as the 8K kelvin ..as ive test trialed both in my old ride, and found 6k whiter than 8k having a tab bluish effect which is shit. lol
I change my Odyssey's low beams to 4300k and left the foggies stock. My Civic has 6000k and I feel the 4300k might be the best compromise between output and visibility.

hmmm might have to dig further into this before buying any exhaust parts as yet. Maybe just a header to CAT (replace oem CAT) and leave all catback oem. there will still be restrictions but as long as it runs abit better .
FGK is short for Fujitsubo, AusAccord and aka_NSX has the FGK Wagolis, Atjo and I have the HKS Legamax Premium although mine was for the Absolute model and needed modifications to fit. The Youtube you saw was most probably Atjo's system. Another member Mobil1 had the HKS hiPower 409 and that one was loud. Most companies only make cat back systems for the RB1, might be a challange to find a header.

^^Thanks...i think ill leave the extra performance as the last solution.. 
Any one know what is the OD of the oem front rotors? 300mm?
thinking of test trial fitment using JDM DC5R/RSX front Brembo calipers. - apparently they are fitted on the dc5R's OEM 300mm rotor as well, so the only thing is the thickness, inside diameter clearance and caliper mounting positions will be the culprits. Theyre both 5x114 PCD's so that shouldnt be an issue.
now to find brembos locally to trial fit. got a mate whos got the set but hes too scared to remove them for trial fitment LOLOLOLOL
-
yes, 300mm for our front rotor. no need to think of JDM Brembo, nothing directly bolt on as verbally confirmed by my mechanic, offset issue.
who wants a set of Brembo with rotor for bolt onto RB1??
-
yes OEM is 300mm F 305mm R
I've read, to fit DC5R Brembos, you need S2000 rotors.
As you can see I've read a bit, but never tried hahahahaha

if its just offset issue then a bracket can be made up... - all test and trial i guess.
im just thinking of a brake upgrade due to the heavy load of the ODC when stopping . such a crappy feel. so if my mate allows me to test trial fit one and spin the rotors freely without issues then well know then...but for the meantime ill just keep dreaming  hahaha
i dont want to spend 2k+ for BBK as not really speeding or anything...more for just safety 
believe my mechanic tested fit a set of JDM Brembo either from DC5R/FD2R onto RB1 with no luck. also JDM DC5R/FD2R Brembo has cast bracket so custom bracket is no go, only shave and spacer can be done. have said all above or on OH, i'm no expert on modification but just a normal RB1 user only....
