Default i wanna make some engine mods...

hey guys im new to this forum but iwas hoping i can get some help here. i have a 1999 civic ex coupe, my engine is all stock but it has 187k on it. I got all my interior and exterior mods off of ebay so i was hoping to do this same with my engine mods. I was looking to get OBX racing headers, aem cold air intake (w/ bypass valve), and once i save some more money, get a skunk2 cat-back exhaust. Please give me some advice. thanks

Thats right lol 187k...i got the car from a guy that drove from Cleveland back to Cortland (ohio they are like a little over an hour apart) back and forth to work ever since the car was brand new. Trust me, it runs like it has 87k instead of 187.

I would throw the engine out and get a swap.

the header is a great idea, but steer clear of OBX headers.[:'(]

It's amazing what people would do as long as it's not spendin their own money.......LOL
(I don't think everyone can afford to throw a new engine in their car)
