I guess my suspension is decent. I have tokito Blues, new speed race springs, front and rear STB's, rear sway bar and comp engineering lowers and traction bars comming in the mail. I have a AEm CAI and that is it for the little it is worth

Some good brake pads, and maybe some larger or slotted rotors.

I don't even know what class you would be in. DSP? FSP? Those traction bars are not legal in STS or STX. Maybe SM.

I would save the money for bolt ons and get better shocks. I bet they'll lower your track time more than I/H/E would.

I agree with CivicSiRacer. Determine which class you plan on competing in first and work from there. Here ya go:

If you are going to compete in SM, I guess the sky's the limit for your D16. Street prepared seems pretty competitive too from what I've seen. If you don't use the traction bars, you could compete in STS. Whatever you choose, have fun.

Upgrade your cooling system, brakes and suspension.
