you can check http://www.andysautosport.com for performance parts. if i were you id go with suspension mods first. this site has plenty of information on accords. your best tip is to search before you post. it will save you from alot of flaming.

My advise is to get yourself a service (repair) manual for your car. Helm is the factory repair manual (about $70 +$30 or so for V6 supplement) or you can go the cheap rout, and get one from Autozone or Advance. The OBDII port is under the dash, near the hood release.

They would be the last two on the list. If you're interested.

save your cash for a stronger transmission.

There isn't too much you can do to the 3.0L to get many more ponies without dropping at least a grand on I/H/E.

A better bet would be to use the 3.5L block with the Av6 heads that would get you about 265HP. You can use the odessey block or one from a Acura MDX (03 or earlier)

Read thhe FAQ 6th gen thread to get information on how to get codes and what they mean.
