What's up guys? In today's video I am talking about 5 different aftermarket mods/upgrades that you can do to your car to make it perform better when driving fast. Now these mods don't directly add horsepower but they all do add noticeable performance gains over the stock setup.

Buy a fuel rail for your RSX, maybe a k-tuned fuel rail. You don't really need it if your under 350 or 400hp, but it would look really nice under your hood.

Sorry I'm in VA. I would definitely hold on to the car though, try going to forums to see who's a good mechanic or shop in your area that could help you out. What I would do is when car meets open up again, ask people around at your local cars and coffee and I'm sure they can point you in the right direction.

I would definitely agree with these first 5 mods! A good suspension and tire setup helps the handling a lot. Then I would do an intake, Kpro/ktuner, RBC and then header and exhaust (in that order). This really helps the K20 breathe and make some good power. Subscribed! What is your batter setup? I noticed it was an Odyssey battery. Which one and how do you have it mounted? I have been looking at getting a smaller race battery for the track and also to free up some room in the engine bay.

ECU is essentially the engine’s computer, helps tell the car what to do. Like how high it can rev for an example. Bolt ons are parts you can just bolt on and go with no need to pull the motor. Examples include but not limited to race header, cold air intake, catback exhaust, coilovers. Clutch is the shifting mechanism in a manual car.
