Default Just bought my Civic

Hi all, it took me 4 months to look for one but I had finally bought one and joined the club. It's a 01 LX-G (Canadian) 5 speed 4drs in metallic silver. It has about 47K kms and has been very well kept. I'll post better pic once I got it washed and detailed.
I understand that the Civic sedan produce about 115 hps. I was wondering that if I upgraded the cold air intake alone will instantly give me another 5-10 hps without upgrading the header and exhaust? also since everything in the car are pretty much stock including the suspensions, would adding on a front and rear struct bar yeilds any noticeble improvement during cornering?

welcome to the forum!! [sm=hiya.gif][sm=hiya.gif] car looks good and you got nice low km's on that..yes upgrading headers,exhust and intake is usually the first things people to do increase the flow of are and make some more power..and if you get strut bars you will REALLY feel a defferece in cornering, I have never heard 1 person who has sead they put them on and didnt feel anything, even better..get some lowering springs and shocks and that will get you throught the corners really well
