hey everyone. i just got a 2006 honda accord. i was just wondering if i should lower it first or put an intake on it. thanks guys

 

The car is perfectly fine the way it is. Is'nt it? If all that aftermarket crap was so good, it would be installed at the factory. Not worth the money. Just my opinion.

 

why are you considering either modification?
are you concerned about the warranty?
how much money are you able (note i said able, NOT willing) to spend?
etc..

suspension is the best bang for the buck.

not true at all. even look at the more performance oriented parts offered by the dealer. if all the HFP parts were so good, why dont they come standard on all accords and civics? If the hemi is so good, why doesnt it come standard in the charger/300/magnum?

for the average american, you are right, its not worth the time, effort, or money

 

Suspension IMO, but not if it voids the warranty.

 

Better handling-stiffer ride, you decide.

thats basically what it comes down to...every "performance" modification has give and take. unless your willing to make sacrafices (usually in comfort), you'll never get better performance

 

ive decided that im going to lower it first. then im going to put an intake on there right after

 

drop it,,,, nothen like sticking it through the corners

A lot of things would be good installed from the factory, like HAMP oil filters, HID projectors, free flowing intake, and lower and stiffer ride.

But why not?

You have no idea how far a car company will go to save just a dollar on a car. Most of that stuff isnt there because the company looks for who makes the product for the lowest cost...so we have to improve it to meet OUR standards.

I personally wouldnt even bother with an intake but if you want it go for it. They mostly make noises, and that's about it.

 

true true true^^^^ you said it

 

That and most people would rather have a cadillac than an F1 car for their daily driver, and its a minority of us that want to punish ourselves with each trip
