which Type-S upgrades to get?
I just bought a brand new RSX Type-S and i want to put performance parts in it but i still want it to look the same. I also dont want to spend to much money but i want quality parts, that will actually work good. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Wowza, yet again.
You need to give more info. Turbo? Supercharger? NOS? NA? Emmissions Testing, does it matter (probably does)? Cost? Daily driveability/practicality?

Re: which Type-S upgrades to get?
start with the suspension...but find out what you want to do 1st...
lets say u want to go turbo in the future...then it'd be a waste of money to get a cat back and a cai... figure out what u want to do then ask questions

Re: which Type-S upgrades to get?
Yeah, what he said. With a turbo you can't do headers or CAI or a few others, so you need to decide which path you are going to take and about how much total are you willing to spend.

For under $2000 you can get the following:
SRI or CAI - $85-260 Hondata4 - $500 Headers - ~$200? Sway bars - ~$200-300? Strut bars - ~$100-450 Better tires - ~ $400 Lowering springs/struts - up to $1-2k range Limited slip differential - up to $1k New clutch/flywheel - ~$1k Big break kit - $1-2k (need bigger wheels for this so price will ultimately be over $2k) There's a lot you can do under $2k. You do need to decide which way you're going because if you turbo the SRI/CAI, headers, and Hondata4 flash will be useless like crazy said. Crazy and others, correct my ranges if they seem wrong or just way off!

First, you're gonna want to punch speed holes in the hood to make the car go faster...

Re: which Type-S upgrades to get?
comptech is the way to go on the performance parts for a type s. it also depends on how far you are going to go with the car. little expensive but well worth it. for the computer Hondata is a good one to go with as far as tunning options go they are very open on the hondata

Re: which Type-S upgrades to get?
Comptech isn't the way to go. Their Icebox's gains are below par and their S/C is taking forever.
