Here's my little pocket rocket when it was crashed, and after I fixed it myself (that's why I have a black hood):

i paid $2500cdn for it with 170,000km and little to no rust (some tiny surface rust). Plan on painting it in the spring and popping in a DOHC ZC as well as finally getting koni reds cuz KYB is JUNK!

Lose the fart canister all together, or at least get it on so it's not at an angle.

ehm, the angle is the whole point. If anything, I'm gonna cut it off and put it at an even greater angle cuz the guy didn't really mount it the way i wanted it.

I bet it increased your horsepower by 0.02 at a whopping 7000 RPM. Save your money and buy a turbo.

I know the exhaust is useless on my car right now but the reason I got it was because my stock one was about to fall off and had holes in it and my gf's cousin owns a performance shop so he hooked me up. I also plan on doing a swap in the spring either d16y8 or a dohc zc so I don't have to get an exhaust later. And it's stainless to survive gay canadian winters.

Catback exhaust is not useless. Maybe just throwing on a muffler would be useless but not a full catback. Plus, you're going to gain more than .002 horses or whatever scottyfordy said. It won't be anything huge maybe 3 or 4 horses.

I know it's not useless, but it's not doing much with my current motor. However, I can feel a difference in the way it pulls, especially on the highway.
