99 Civic EX
Hey guys,
Is there any cheap mods I can do to my car to get extra torque or horsepower?? And on exhaust if I was to get OBX full exhaust with OBX header would it have a deep sound?? Would it be worth it if I replaced the muffler with an HKS Hi-Power and use the rest OBX piping and header??

STAY AWAY FROM OBX!!! there stuff is shitty. the only thing i would ever buy from them is maybe an oil pan. as far as the exhaust pipe, go to the local muffler shop and have them bend you up some. this is way cheaper and better. get the muffler where ever you want. as far as the header megan racing headers are the best. I/H/E is the best starting point. you can get the intake off e-bay but other stuff stay away unless they are a reputable brand.

and i would hardly say megan headers are the best. but that's up for debate.

cheap materials, crappy welding, thin. i has a few of thier parts and the welds broke out on them. like the turbo exhaust manifold. it lasted maybe 2 months and then it became an expensive paperweight. as for the oil pan it was suggested to me by a local tuner shop. obx parts are about as good as xspower shit.

as for megan headers i like the way they flow. that was when i didn't have a turbo setup either. granted there are probably better ones but that is what i've found and have been suggested by many others. aparently if others are suggesting them they must be fairly good.
