I have a 99 Si. I had a magnaflow exhaust on mine once. For just little diferences, but knowing that power is there and you can feel the Vtec kick better and give you good runs for a college student, you can do a Bigger Piping, like a 2.25 or 2.50 piping, you will feel better air flow for around 60$ custom done at any shop. Or just get basics, like on Ebay, Intake, headers, and Sparkpluggs, all under the price of 200 in Ebay.


***99 Si Mods:
-Apexi N1 catback 2.25 piping
-Cold Air Intake
-4-1 headers
-MSD SCI 6Al Ignition
-OBDII, OBDI ECU harness, SKUNK2 Chipped
-Nology Hot wires Sparkplug wires
-NJK iridium sparpluggs
-AEM Tru Cam gears,+Pullys
-ACT 6 puck CLutch package, Pressure plate+ Flywheel
-Short throw shifter......

Interesting.........................an ACT 6 puck disc on a low torque low hp setup. I just want to spend a moment here and share with you a few of my friends experience.

friend #1 - put in a clutchmaster 3 on his stock gsr. The clutch didnt last him too long.

friend #2 - put in an ACT 6 puck disc on his mildly modded gsr w I/H/E. The result was a warped pressure plate in less than a year.

Tell you the truth, these two friends are actually one guy whom ive warned not to go with a stage 3 clutch setup on his mildly modded teg. He did not learn the lesson the first time and ended up making the same mistake twice :rofl: anyways......................just cause i want to compare experiences, hows the 6 puck feelin on your setup :biggrin:

header one word
and it depends on what u want to do with your car
if your into dragging id got turbo kit if your into road racing autocrossing supercharging

Vortech Supercharger gives you 310 hp at the crank or so, on stock internals.

Sick. If you ask me.

i would just go all motor and do bolt ons. if u driving on the highway alot i would go for something a little more reliable and better on gas.
