But a tuned exhaust from a company that uses a dyno for tuning pipe size etc is your best bet for Power.
If you want a cool looking SLOW car. Add a bunch of mufflers and 300 lbs of speakers and amps to you trunk and throw function out the window and pour some hard earned buck s in the garbage and end up with a buzz box like every other Honda on the road.
Just depends what you want!
