Need ideas for cheap engine mods!
Ok wel I started college a few weeks ago but just because Im in school doesn't mean that I'm gonna stop working on my car Well after some thinking I figured that I want to focus mainly getting the most out of my engine and also cleaning it up a bit and making it sexy, because the way Honda made it is not sexy. So basically I need your opinions guys for what I should do. So far performance wise,on my 2010 ROM fit, I've put a tanabe touring medallion exhaust and a prm intake. I also ordered twpansons ETC which should be here any day now lol
I want to make my engine bay sexy but i also wouldnt mind throwing in there some stuff that'll boost my performance

If you want bling im good at that.
1. Password JDM, Gallery, or another washer and bolt kit. will need at least 20.
2. Front upper strut tower bar
3. Oil cap-Password, Mugen, Hks, Spoon, Etc, Etc
4. Radiator cap-Same as above
5. Battery stay-Password jdm
6. Paint your intake manifold cover-Ge has one but will have to be taped off to paint
7. Password JDM radiator stays? Might have to custom fit those or paint stock ones
None of these will increase performance in any way. They will however increase the bling factor alot.
Of course with a Turbo or Supercharger kit you would not need bling.

You do have a point there, but I would still like my engine to look decent, but I need some more suggestions for relatively cheap (I'm talking at max a few hundred dollars) mods and things I can add to my car to get more out of it

Oh and I saw something about a buddy club racing spec condenser, what exactly is this?

It's alright lol although i did think you were a little rude, and maybe your picture doesnt help lol but it's all good. Ive wanted to get rims and tires for my car for the longest time now but theyve just been so expensive that I've avoided trying to look for them lol

so any street driven fit? do u have a fit? if so does it have a strut bar? if not mine does, can we take both around a turn and see who handles/ goes around the turn faster, if thats not proof, why not drive around the track and see who has a faster time? now i know its not "street" to test this at the track, but it would show a difference between the 2 cars. but what about the way the cars chassis feels after a strut bar has been installed, is that not an improvement of stability? not being rude here, but u realize u said one of the most common ways to improve a cars handling does nothing.... then why the hell do they sell these as aftermarket or as factory "sport" or "performance" suspension? anyway after adding a custom made set to my fit, i now have it oversteering into corners, do u kno how fun it is to countersteer ur fit? i fucking love it, but i doubt u do cuz u havent added strutbars... lol not saying thats y my fit oversteers but it helps keep the chassis stiff and allow the tires to "slide" (more or less) but i also run high psi in all my tires so that helps but i do that for the mpg. just sayin....
