Hello, I just purchased a 2005 Accord V6. It is 240hp stock and i would love to get it to 265hp or a bit higher. What are the best parts for me to add to accomplish this? I was thinking a Greedy SP2 cat. back exhust, AEM V2 intake, and a Venom 400 computer modual.
I'm pretty new to this so and comments on these items or suggestions for others is Greatly appreciated. Thanks! Jeff

well, you have the right idea, for a little more power, the intake, exhaust, cat back, pulleys, cam sprockets, perhaps an ecu re-program, and other such bolt on things might help you get up to 265, and depending on their efficiency you might go higher...do more research not on what will get you 265 but on individual parts, for example, create a thread which asks, for the 2005 accord, what company has the best header, and the best cat back, and best exhaust, and try to keep the questions in as minimal amount of threads possible.

 

Well, accoding to the folks at V6performance.com, there's not much you have to do to get this engine to 265 hp. It is generally thought that just using 93 octane fuel will give you a 10 hp/10 lb/ft torque boost because the computer will allow more spark advance. Also using synthetic oil (such as Mobil 1 0w-20) will probably few up at least another 5 hp. These measures alone will bring you to 255. Borla has documented that their cat-back exhaust also fees up another 10 hp or so. AEM cold air intake will also help out. Yoiu'll probably be at 265 just doing these things. With that being said, if you have a 6 speed yoiu have a triple advantage over the automatic (more gears with closer ratios, a variable circuit in the intake manifold that alows more low seed torque, and it has a form of cold air intake from the factoy ). Go to the V6performance site and you'll get alot of info about all this.
