apexi has a nice one 4-2-1 header with a 2.25 piping all the way back helps and sounds nice not ricey high

also magna-flow makes a nice 4-2-1 set-up with 2.25 piping and stainles steel all the way to the back axle...

two of the best for price and performance i think..i said 4-2-1 and 2.25 pipeing b/c i think thats good enough for your all motor set-up..hoped i helped and if you need prices on these systems let me know..

alright apexi i'll look into it, im sure ive seen one around $500...another question.... can I have an intake manifold, intake pipe, and intake system in the car all at once? and if I can, since I've got all stock (160hp) will it boost me over 200hp? also since my engine is a 1.6L, what do I need, and how much will it cost to get it up to 2.0L or 2.5L??

To clarify, is it a Civic Si or a Civic SiR? Im asking cause unless u dropped in a DOHC engine or bought a USDM Civic DOHC Si, then u're car isnt putting out 160.

Stock Civic Si's came with the 1.6L SOHC with approx 125hp.

In either case, I'm quite fond of the Apexi N1 Exhausts.

ok intake manifold comes with your car you could up grade that for more air flow, but thats a different story....and if thats what your asking ..yes you could up grade your mani, and run a aftermarket intake pipe with filter....

the best thing you can do for power is get a 2.5" collector header, with a 2.5" exhaust get custom made will save alot of money, this will produce the best power then get as the biggest resonator you can fit and choose your muffler car will sound good and produce good power
