Unhappy 96 (p-Reg) 2.2 Vtech Accord TUNING

:frog: Hi all
I have a 96 (p-reg) 4 door accord 2.2 vtech I am told it produces arround 150bhp(standard)is this true?
It feels as if its underpowered(its a big car really)I think it really needs 200 plus brake to make it perform well.
any way I am thinking of trying to get more power from the lump.
any suggestions??
Also thinking of traction control to start withI think this would perhaps im prove the standard cars performance!!( stop wasting all the power on take offs) £80 odd pound for a trye here!!!
I quite fancy lowering the car and fitting a body kit( any one know where I could get the necerssary???
I know this wont inprove the performance but I m a poser at heart!!
As far the engine mods go what gains can I expect from what mods?
By the way The engine has nearly 90 thousand miles on the clock is that to much to start tuning on? it sound a little knocky
as for power aims I was thinking of 250 bhpis this possible from my 96, 2.2 sohc ?
from what I can gather from other people an air filter exhuast and injectors seem a good starting point but I dont want to spend money if there is not enough of a gain in it.
