hey guys I hot a 1994 acura integra with a cold air intake, full cat back exhaust system, coil overs and i think that may be it. I don't care about having the fastest car in my town for one ill never have the money lol just something that will make me happy and i can customize as i go.

anyway i have a few questions if you guys don't mind helping me out.
How much horsepower does the cold air intake add? (I'm learning so please don't flame me too bad.)
Also I would like to buy a body kit, but i wanna find one that's not crazy looking something different but not dumb, any suggestions on what to look for besides lip kits?
Thanks

but on a serious note, yeah probably 2 whp, dont get a kit imo. you should get a WW lip kit, they look legit, or just get a ITR lip and call it a day

i dont think i have the money for a super charger or vtec at least not for awhile, wish i did though
how much would a tune cost or could i just do that on my own?

Noo, ask around locally and see if you can find a place for a good tune local, or if you live near wisconsin take a drive up to king motorsports. they are godly and take amazing care of your car. could probably get it done for around 300 for a full tune, could probably get it done for 150 locally. nah those swaps/superchargers you're looking at 1k-2.5k

a tune, exhaust, and suspension will do GREAT justice to start out. for exhaust i recommend apexi N1, rsr ex mag, or just get a 2.5 full pipe and use the stock muffler

If you want to add the most power possible for the least amount and make your car last longer listen up........... no im not going to sell you New Zealand Snake Oil for your engine (btw, incase you didnt know thats a joke because there are no snakes in New Zealand)


FULL TUNE-UP!

-Nice oil (mobil 1's nice, so are the 0W German Castrol's)
-Oil filter
-Fuel filter (run about 2 gallons of E85 through a tank before you replace it, it will clean everything)
-New spark plugs
-Plug wires (depending on mileage)
-Clean the distributor cap (on the contacts inside)
-Clean your battery terminals and check main chassis and engine ground for corrosion
-Transmission oil
-PCV valve
-Coolant change (add some Redline Waterwetter in there too)
-Fresh brake fluid
-Valve lash adjustment

and im sure theres something else im missing. That will add more power per $ than the mods your looking at. Plus add reliability and extend the life of the car. Dont forget to run about 2 gallons of E85 in a tank to really clean out all the shit in your fuel system and engine before you replace the fuel filter. If you cant find E85 run 2 tanks of a good fuel system cleaner.


oh and dont do a body kit, they really dont look right. Here is some inspiration, this is a 94 teg with a Integra Type-R Lip kit...
