tech wrench Next reliable mod after I-H-E?

I need some suggestions as to the next best reliable mod after I-H-E. I have an LS, so no vtec to mess with. Would a high flow cat be the best thing? Pulleys? What are pros and cons of underdrive pulleys?

Thanks guys

Does Carsound come in a bolt-up application or is it straight weld? I'd rather have a bolt-on cat

They are universal cats but if you take it to a muffler shop they can weld on flanges so then it will bolt to your exhaust.

slim9300 is on a distinguished road
I say a Apexi Super AFC II or a Greddy E-manage. They run about $300 and both are probably the best two piggyback units for hondas. This will give you the ability to tune your fuel settings and will be critical for down the road if you ever get cam shafts, cams gears, nitrous, aftermarket intake manifold, or pretty much any mod that allows your vehicle to burn more fuel efficiently.
Oh yeah, you are probably better off geting a ACT Prolight Flywheel though (8.8lbs.), they run about $250. When I used to have an LS motor, I had i/h/e and none of their power gains compared to the flywheel. However if you are going to change the flywheel, you should probably change the clutch too. Exedy makes a good racing/daily driving clutch for about $300. Sorry, I hope you have alot of money because as you probably already know parts just keep getting more expensive the farther you move along.:eek

hi flow cat or clutch mebbe?

i'd reconmend doing a total flush of the fluids and add ss lines and upgraded pads for your brakes..

mebbe tires also?

there's a lot of stuff you can do?

do you want power stuff? or say, like upgrade your suspension?

what are your goals?
