I have AEM CAI, DC Headers, GReddy Evo Exhaust. I'm not sure what to get next?
Note: I'm into performance parts more than visual. I also have 15" slips, eibach sportlines, etc. Oh, I also like JDM stuff ;). Check my sig to see the rest.

My price range for new parts are around: $500 - $1000.

I was thinking of getting either new tires, hondata, or other suspension stuff..

Hondata, strut bars, and upgraded rear sway.

I would suggest Hondata, its $595 and it will add more hp throughout the whole rpm range and works best with the mods that you already have, furthermore, if you do not want to do that, then i would save some more and go turbo for the next step, or the jackson supercharger..... so for the links........ hondata.com
or you can check out Showstoppers for the turbo deals. And just check around different places for the Jackson SC. take care, dave

JDM 22MM SWAY BAR

enough said;)

Literally out of everyone who has gotten this sway bar they have ALL said that it was worth the $$$ because you feel the differnece. There is no other mod mentioned in this website that has the same unanimous feedback

the RSX sway is 19mm
the CTR sway is 22mm
the Mugen Sway is 24mm

the CTR sway goes for aroung $100-$150usd shipped. I believe www.Hondawerx.com is selling it for around this price. I promise you won't be dissapointed

What kind of difference is it, just less motion in the turns, but does it prevent it from pushing since its fwd...thanks bro, dave

the biggest difference simply is that I can make turns at relatively higher speeds like its nothing:D

If your looking for a stock power gainer throughout the rpm range and a mod that will endure going to turbo or SC in the future...

If you're sticking with the A3, my vote would be for Hondata as well. Unless you plan on boosting in the future.

Is there anything else somebody can do to get more power staying Naturally Aspired besides hondata, intake, header, exhaust?

Besides an engine swap....

Larger thottle body, more aggresive cams, more aggresive fuel mapping (hondata), larger fuel injectors, possible fuel pump (depends), weight reductions (so that means time to go on a diet :D ), and mybe some other stuff I can't think of right now.

With regard to larger injectors, not a requirement NA. (Unless you do the head swap, or suddenly develop larger lobes). Larger TB (custom, not spoon) is what I was suggesting previously. Fuel pump and or Fuel Rail is also a non mod for a relatively stock ride, seeing as the stock fuel rail already provides enough flow for up to 500cc+ @ 80% duty cycle injectors. Other things I can think of, Hondata heatshield and test pipe;)

ITR cam shaft upgrade. I'm curious to see the results of this
