Is the exhaust going to be hard because of the rubber hangers, on the performance chip I was going to get on made by unichip, I found it on auto anything. Com. I believe it is a piggyback type, I figured the ones on eBay were crap when it said 200 hp increase for only $25.

I have heard of ppl using "chips" for trucks and turbo diesels. But never on hondas.
I have heard good things about Bullydog but I don’t think they make them for cars.

It’s not that it’s really hard it’s just a pain. You might have some trouble with rusted bolts..if you have a old Tq. wrench it will help. Don't use a new one b/c once you start losing bolts with a Tq. wrench the calibration is lost and then your wrench is only useful for un-tq. bolts.

haha
no they aren’t but rust and age. I doubt they will just loosen up with just a socket wrench...breaker bar will help too. Sometimes they even need to be torched off

22-23ft/lbs they don't need much. Get a haynes manual for you car to be 100% sure
