First of all, dont try to be a smart a$$ on these forums. This aint no honda-tech. N00bs like you just trash up the forums with same types of threads, asking same questions over and over again.

To answer ur question.......there are countless numbers of threads where people have recommended basic mods such as SRI/CAI, UD Pulley, Headers, TB, Piggy back (used), wide varieties of exhause and so on......

Here are some examples of the threads that i found by simple search:

A-2 Designs has a dual throttle body intake manifold for 400 dollars that should net you about a ~35 WHP gain with a tune.

I say Intake, exhaust, pulley and your good to go. If you have money left over then get header/downpipe.

On a stock car, no. However, if a car had I/H/E and a good tune I think it would be possible to see 135whp. The change over to a ported throttle body and ported 4g93 IM makes a big difference already, so yeah I think it's possible.
