OK, So I'm not into the whole "boost" thing,..mainly because I dont want to void anymore warranties than I have to...and as they say "bottles are for babies"...ANYWAYS...I'm looking to try and get somewhere around 150 or maybe 160 hp out my engine without nitrous or turbo, or any other ****. Im including a list of things I plan on doing,...if you have any idea how much i "should" have after all of them, or have any ideas for anything else just let me know.
here is a list of what I plan on doing in the future. I dont know how much each and everyone will give me exactly, so Im just kinda of looking for an estimated guess or what not. Oh yeah, I already have an AEM SRI, and 5Zigen bolt on "axle-back" exhaust...and I have a 2004 DX(vp) civic
1) DC 4-2-1 EX headers
2) hi-flow cat to match EX headers
3) 2.25" custom piping to match axle back exhaust
4) AEM tru-power pulleys
5) AEM cam gear
6) If I am able to find one for the 2004 DX model civic I'd like to get a Cam
thats all I can think of for now,..but if you have any other basic "bolt ons" that would add some HP just let me know. thanks in advance..

If your looking for 150 to 160 your going to need to do some major internal work.

i got that same exhaust setup you want, Kamikaze header, 2 1/4 stainless piping, random technology high flow cat, I did notice after i got it installed that i lost alot of low and mid range torque, but gain some in the top. I was not running a resignator so i put one on and defentally helped must have created some backpressure and gave me some torque back.
