Well what are your goals for your car? If u just want to make noise then ur intake and exhaust should work fine for u. If ur into NA performance then definetely get one. If u want to go turbo, dont waste ur money.

Headers will give you like 10 more hp at the crank. Maybe better pedal feel and might lower the hp/torque band.

Not quite buddy Maybe 2-3 HP at the wheels for a SOHC accord.. With accords, you better off saving your money for a H22a...

ok, 2-3 at the wheels, but 7-10 at the crank. right?

And 40 hp @ the wheels from an Accord Type-R badge.
