Default horsepower increase ?

Ok so I've got a k&n induction kit on my s2k and a full system invidia q300 exhaust.

I was wondering what else can I add to the car/engine that isn't really expensive ?

I was looking at a super charger but thats to costly at the minute @ £4500

Thanks

Your best bet is less about increasing HP, but increasing the usable power. The DBW flashpro is an excellent tool to allow you to optimize your modifications. It is a great combo with a High flow cat or better yet the Gernby midpipe.
I gained ~10 hp but the TQ in the midrange is what makes the car more usable overall.

Hondata flashpro is for the Drive by wire 06+ models.
For an 03 you would want a standalone engine management system.

the 06+ have it far easier as we just reflash the ECU with a new tune (provided by Gernby is the optimal).

You have some grat mods with the gernpipe, now you need to get the car to optimize them with tuning.
