Performance wise:
Hondata intake mod/Comptech foam filter $30 (I got the hookup ;) )
-That was the most noticible difference out of all my cheap mods.
Midpipe $20 (Did the pipe bending and welding myself)
-Didn't do much but add more noise, changed back to stock b/c I did a crappy bend towards the rear and it kinda rattles :D
91 Octane gas, about 20 cents more per gallon :cool:
-Car seems to pick up better in the upper RPMs vs 87 and it runs quieter for some reason (Maybe it's just me :rolleyes: )
And in the very near future, Hondata intake manifold gasker $65

How do you do the rear wiper removal? I tried just dissassembling but the motor is really wedged into the hatch. got a link for it?

Why would you want to remove the rear wiper? just weight reduction? seems that the whole assembly couldn't weigh more than a few pounds.

JDM 22mm rear sway bar
a little over the set price but not much
biggest bang for buck period

I think about 10 pounds. I'm not removing mine, but it's a cheap
option/mod. Kind of good for looks, if you were really serious about
weight reduction you'd do that (and the moonroof), I guess.
