just putting a pipe will make the exhaust sound too loud to drive with unless you like getting alot of angry looks lol. intake is a good mod like aem v2.

thanks
yea id rather not have angry neighbors... not yet anyway lol

umm any idea about spark plugs?

[gearbox]

stick with the ngk v-power copper plugs. or if you really want to spend more money, go with iridium ngks or denso. they require slightly less electrical energy to make the spark so your alternator gets less stress.

Welcome...

Stick to the NGK's. The more expensive plugs are just a waste imo. For me the most cost effective mods for the LX civic is a nice drop and a decent sound system.

Any suggestion for system?
I dont want it to rattling

An i can just replace the stock subs in the back with aftermarks right?

Systems are very personal preference driven so I couldn't just throw out models and brands, however I'll tell you for HU's I like Alpine and Pioneers. Check out what I said in this thread here;

Car Audio for moi...

That should get you started.
