well i really want a thermal but it's expensive. for your car it's around $500 + shipping the lowest i could find, and expect to pay a lot for shipping.

no problem. don't get bosh plugs for your car. they are good in german cars but not in japanese cars. i've had a totyota, a subaru and a honda so far and they ran like crap with boches

YES go thermal, it is definately worth the money.
you can get a thermal with free shipping from www.revolutiontuning.com (where I got mine) and they seem to be the only ones that give you the choice of classic, turbo, or stealth for all yrs. Use ngk plugs |

thats what honda uses as oem...so theyre best designed for our cars. Oh and dont bother shelling out for the iridium plugs unless youre super modded...otherwise its a waste of money

True, but it is also geared for a different type of performance, if you want to modify your car more than I,H,E, than the classic will be worth it cause it is geared to high RPM power. |

I would put in a call to them, if they make the stealth, then i bet they also make the classic. Give them a call or write an email.

how does the stealth sound. i have an apc catback(don't anyone kill me) because it was cheap and personally i'm not really disappointed with it. for the money its great($200 installed) but iwant something throatier and maybe something to give me some more power. i am really thinking about the classic or stealth

GET THE CLASSIC - its the best, the stealth is only good if u do not plan on modifying ur car in the future (the whole low end performance deal doesnt work too well when you hook up ur car to handle performance at high rpms.)
