yeah thats about right give or take 5 hp, lol. if you wanna do a motor swap, there is no point in wasting money in the hx motor. i would start saving up for the swap already, the more you save up the faster your gonna get it. but if you want power now you can get nos. you could always transfer the nos to the engine swap when you get it. the hx motor itself is nto really that good of a motor so i would stay away form wasting money on it.
yeah get the intake and the exhaust cause those are tranferable but i wouldnt get the header. all this kinda depends on if you are gonna swap and then what your gonna swap into there.

i would suggest go ask a shop. it looks like you would be having it swapped by a shop anyways. these prices are for a complete swap running out the door, around there. b16a = $2500, b18c1 = $4500

BAH make your HX faster with I/H/E ? Bro... HX = economy box
You want to make it faster, sell it and buy an SI or throw in a new motor cause the HX is built for economy - throwing on I/H/E will not only be a waste of $500+ but youll probably loose out on a great deal of that wonderfull fuel economy the HX is so famous for

To make your HX fast take it out back
(bring a shot gun) shoot it several times Call your insurance company Try to get them to pay for a new engine then go get a swap  and lose less money um... to add a little bit of power yeah Intake Headers exaust give you about 15 more hp nothing to great lol
