    well, i think you should start with air intake. 92 civic intake will fit after you cut 3 inches out of it. go to autozone and get one for like $40.
    than you start thinking about new plugs (NGK), wires (NGK), distributor cap and rotor, Fuel filter, Oh yeah and Accel coil or MSD blaster 2 coil. after that may be MSD 6AL for more spark power.
    if you still have some money left, new headers, and exhaust.
    may be regrind cam.
    and so on and on.

    I would say just do simple tune up with air intake and accel coil.
    Alex.

    Go to my site and see what you like, maybe that'll give you some ideas on where to start.
    It depends whether you like performance or looks, maybe even sound.

    Personally before you get the msd ignition I would suggest you get headers and an exhaust. For the exhaust get 2.25 inch mandrel bent pipes from a muffler shop. Get a muffler of your choice a lot of people here like dynomax super turbo mufflers.. As for the accel coil after you get it gap your plugs to .050-.054 for a little extra power.
