so ive been reading the posts about how you get heatsink with and aftermarket header. so im getting rid of my CAI since my spoon header heats up that tube so much. i touched it and near burned my hand. so im putting the stock one back on and using a k&n. question is, is there anything else i can do as far as bolt on that will make my car a lil quicker? thanks in advance

Um exhaust and type-r stickers.







BTW- In cse your humor meter is off right now the type-r stickers was a joke. :)

I would have just wrapped the CAI in heatwrap or built a small heat sheild really rather than just removing it. Don't know about actually making your car quicker but breath easier i'd get a bolt on cat-back to go along with that header & CAI & a high flow cat if you already haven't. Other than that stick to basics unless you got the money to turbo or build the engine

Shavedaccord pretty much covered the basic stuff... you can always try and lighten up your car by swapping out for carbon fiber stuff... hoods, trunks,etc.
