Hey great site, great information and seems to be really nice people too.

I just recently bought a 1999 Civic LX Sedan. Needed a commuter car with four doors, decent power and gas mileage. So I bought the Civic.

I had a 97 2 Door DX up until then.

Went thru the "Rice stage" as my buds call it. Big wheels, clear lights, neon, coffee can. All show and no go.

Now it's time for something different. This car will be all go, and no show.....OK maybe a little show but not much beyond a nice set of Graphite 15 or 16 inch rims and maybe a 1.5 to 1.8 inch drop.

Questions:

1. What exhaust produces a good increase in power but not a huge increase in sound?

2. Intake - same thing is there an intake that is terribly loud?

3. Ignition - I am considering purchasing an MSD ignition for this car, is this an good upgrade? I know putting it on my small block powered Landcruiser made a big difference. Can I expect a similar increase percentage wise?

Thanks everyone! :thumbup:
