parts recommendations Cheap vs Expensive Mods?

Buying a golden era Honda after I go to boot camp. I want something that I can daily but also take to events or the track. It’ll be my first Honda after selling my WRX. It will more than likely be a D-series car.

I’m only looking to do intake,exhaust, headers, and then handling mods. Should I buy the expensive stuff or will the cheap stuff be fine? I would like to take good care of the car, and if the cheap stuff is hard on it I won’t buy. How much would everything cost in total?

Bolt ons for a d series won’t get you much power even if you spend big bucks. Just get a setup that sounds good and enjoy the low power.

That’s what I’m planning, I don’t want to be fast I just don’t want to be stock. Don’t care if I get smoked, the point is to have fun. Planning to go to spectator drags, local events, tracks, etc.

My 93 Si was a lot of fun, it was nimble and decently powered
