    Welcome to Club-tC.com! If your looking for more HP/Torque you can add: Cold-Air Intake, Axle-Back/Cat-Back Exhaust, S-Pipe. For even more power, get yourself a turbo kit from: Decendant, PTuning or Dezod and get a full tune. What kind of engines are your friends running in their swapped Honda's: B16's, B18's, H22's, LS V-Tech, GSR, K20's?

    mainly b18 and gsr swaps they put out close to 200 hp and i just hate how they think hondas are the best street car and i want to be able to just keep up and put down some good hp.

    I have raced a few Honda's and I can keep up w/ them w/o a prob. But Hatchbacks are a complete different story. If they have turbo's, you mine as well forget it. If it was me do your bolt-on's: CAI, Header, Exhaust, S-Pipe, Suspension (Lowering Springs, Rear Sway Bar, Engine Strut Bar, Wheels and Sticky Tires). If you have the money, go w/ a turbo upgrade w/ a complete tune, most of them will race you, but will think twice of racing you again after they've been beaten by your tC.

    A drop is a good thing, but the wheel size, tire size and off-set will determine what fits w/o rubbing or bottoming out. I have Eibach Prokit w/ Tokico Struts, very pleased w/ the setup.

    IMO, I am partial towards Tanabe Exhaust. As far as Header's go, I would look into either Weapon-R, DC Sport, or Strup. Megan's products are than than satisfactory, I would avoid them if I was you.
