vtec, not vteck or vtech, ppl will bash the hell out of you for misspelling it lol. heres a slogan for you tho

fast + reliable = expensive
fast + cheap = not reliable
cheap + reliable = not fast

put an intake and exhaust on it, help the motor breathe better and it will give you a better throttle response

^???

look buy a cheapo ebay intake then throw the filter away and buy a k&n filter

for exhaust ive used several no name headers and they worked fine, as for exhaust up grade goto a local muffler shop and get a quote for them to put a full 2in exhaust
and look into a high flow cat.

if you dont run a cat...in alot of states its illegal, and also if your state requires inspections then you will automatically fail, and not to mention ur car will be loud as hell.
