my megan racing catback was $354 shipped. thats a good deal. Most exhausts range from $300 to $500. Ofcourse some are more or less, but thats the average. Good exhausts include, Apexi, Greddy, Megan, Magnaflow etc. You could always go custom too, for alot cheaper

well, your gonna hear alot about the AEM V2. depending on your civic, this intake will be a Cold Air Intake, or a Short Ram. I have a 99 ex coupe, and its the Cold Air. Alot of people also say, the intake tube doesnt matter, and you can get a cheap one off ebay, then upgrade the filter to an AEM dry flow. The V2 is very pricey for an intake (about $300 give or take) The V2 is proven to have the best gains over most intakes. On average you can spend $100-$200 on a basic cold air intake. Short rams can be a little cheaper and easier to install. I would say figure out if you want a short ram or cold air first, then go from there

Hey Guys I was thinking a cool air. I have heard that a short ram has a quicker jump or i mean that you can feel the acceleration more on take off but is not recommended for long trips and I go from AZ to Cali all the time. Is that true? Thanxxx
