CAI, Header-tail pipe, now what?
Hello folks,
I've got a 99coupe 2.3L Vtec with the above mentioned modifications done. It's mad a big power difference. However, I'm looking for a bit more. I've asked around and no-one seems to know much about the performance stuff where I live. I've tried a plug n play chip from jet performance which worked as well as sugar in the gas tank. What can I do next? Some mechanics have mentioned a larger throttle body, perhaps better injectors, and perhaps even chips. Has anyone out there had any success with these or do you have any other suggestions?
Thanks,

Thanks for the welcome and the info. I found a lot of good tips which should save me the trial and error costs.
I think my next move is going to be a bigger throttle body. It seems like the next logical move in my car since I'm in university right now and it will be a while till I think about chargers etc.
Where can I get a good performance throttle body? What is a throttle body spacer and could I benefit from one if I get a different body?
Last but not least, I have a baffle on the end of my stainless muffler that I like to keep in every now and then, the problem is that it vibrates when the back pressure builds, take offs no problems. Makes the car sound cheap. Currently I can take it in and out with only one screw that holds it in place. Any suggestions?
Thanks
