Default To be or Not to Be?

Hey you guys im know to this forum but i have a few questions i have a h22a in my 1990 accord ex. I want to go naturally aspirated for now but i might add a turbo later. But here are the questions, im looking for an exhaust, manual tranny, and cold air intake if not a front mounted intercooler but cant find them anywhere i checked on ebay and local stories in the reading pa area but have found none. My friend said he would give me his exhaust if i could just by the pipes but he has a civic and since my car is a little lower than his wouldn't a three inch can scrap because of potholes?

well i plan on going turbo later on in the engine life with a 10 pound bottle, racing seats, brembo brakes, roll cage, blah blah but for now im not sure if i should intercooler or intake first? but that still doesn't solve my manual tranny problem.... i want an integ ls 1 trans or a standard accord manual trans? which one is better for future upgrades because in reading pa i cant really find stuff for a 1990 accord i see plenty of 93's and 92's but not alot of tricked 90's its like im the only one with a slightly upgraded 90.... it makes me sick trying to be different and not get a honda civic, integ, mazda, or eclipse... i did see a guy with an s13 though?

o yea im also trying to pony up the cash to see how many horses my h22a has now and compare it to the original hps straight from the assembly line but i can't find the original figures my best guess would be that it only had 130whp but i then i thought shouldnt it have more than that because an f22 head has 160?
