as far as appearance its your car so you do what you want. if we give our opinions theres no need to take offense
also i encourage you to find what you like and not what everyone else likes
too many people modify their cars to please other people and not themselves
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_Control_Unit
the ecu is essentially the brain of your car and controls how the engine performs as far as fuel intake, set a rev limit (red line), and other functions
in modern cars the ecu can be reprogrammed (reflash) to make the engine pull in more fuel, increase your red line and make other components work harder, thereby increasing horsepower
hondata is the name of a company that will reflash your ecu for you
