Here is what ya do..... very easy and able to do it in your garage....ready???
1. 5/16 Motordyne spacer (retains engine cover) with ISO Therm copper gasket
2. Stillen Intake with z-tube or just do the drop in K&N with a z-tube to save money....
3. Exhaust...take your pic....
Anything else would be either too much $$$ or unable to do in your driveway/garage.
Trust me, I spent hours searching....I want those hours of my life back, because nobody ever did this for me....

Thats why I am recommending this now. There was an overall improvement in stereo quality due to reduction of vibration and keeping the sound in the car and also reduction in road noise. I would say this mod is a must for every g driver. If someone says otherwise they dont have dampening and dont know the difference it makes

Honda people.......lots to learn.
