Mid-Range Power

I have a 1998 Honda Civic EX. I'm looking to increase my midrange power (ie: ~3,000RPM-5,000RPM). I have already built my own AEM style intake, which helps, but what else can I add to my car to increase that area of the band? Headers, exhaust, cam, v-afc... All this stuff seems designed to pull more power out of the high end, near redline. Since I don't race, and just want to be able to pass people in traffic, and get on the highway with ease, what do you recomend I do?

i think a 4-2-1 header will give a good encrease through mid rpms a 4-1 header is mainly high

you're not gonna get much midrange out of a single cammer, best bet would be 4-2-1 header or a midrange tuned exhaust like Apexi WS, Thermal Stealth, DC TCS, etc.

SUPERCHARGE IT:devil:

Super/Turbocharging the car is a great idea, and I would love to, but I would only do it after I built the bottom end up, and that is just way to expensive for me.
