Default Worth It??

Hey guys,
I have a 99 Civic EX and I planned on swapping engines down the road sometime. Would it be worth it getting full exhaust, CAI, Pulley kit, etc.???

No just save your money for the swap. Nothing is more discouraging than not having any money in your pocket. Plus they don't always come cheap.

the only thing you could use with a new engine is the exhaust. so dont waste your money on other crap.

I wouldn't waste your money on any of that, your not going to see a noticable difference in power, just empty pockets. Save for the swap, you will be WAY happier in the end. ( sooner swap / more fundage)

So just worry about looks and exterior and save for a swap.
