Hey guys i just purchased a 06 accord coupe k24 5 spd, Im Just wondering if there are any changes in anything on the o6's compared to the 03-05 models? From what i know the only difference is the maf... Im looking for aftermarket parts and im just wondering if i need to know anything before i start ordering parts.. I plan on getting a dc 4-2-1 header running to 2.5 piping with a high flow cat and a apexi n1 (2.5)... Intake wise the only intake thats maf compatible is the fujita cold air?? Im new to the accord so any help would be much appreciated..

yes the fujita CAI is the only game in town!!! as far as the intake goes

they dont make the apexi N1 for 7th gens, i would start with suspension as the first mod

You already have a 4-1
Just FYI

 

But the 4-2-1 dc headers are a significant gain, for a 4cyl bolt-on, it's been dyno'd by a few auto owners who got 8-11whp out of it. That was on 03-05 however, so it might be different for 06, but I doubt it.

 

only significant change to engine is "fly by wire" (no more throttle cable) and ECU reprgrammed for slightly higher output.

 

Yes im aware there is no bolt on n1 system for the 7 gen exaust wise , i think there is only a few companys that have it for my car, but im a custom fabricator so i bought a 2.5 apexi n1 unit and im doing custom stainless unit with option test pipe...Headers back, I believe there should be atleast a 10-15 hp gain from that and about 8-10 with the intake.. I also am contiplating port matching but i dont think there will be much of a gain unless the throttle body was done too..The small things are gonna be done first.. I also ordered tein springs to drop it a bit and new 18 by 8 black gt5 will be added to the mix... I bet you guys will ask why dont i just build the header too well it would be very time consuming and bussiness right now is boomin... Any ideas would be greatly appreciated..Thanks..

wow good luck on that, keep us up to date on the progess....
pics would be great!!

i also have an 06..... yet to make any modifications though =[ ........... college haha there goes all my money

 

06 has little more aggressive cams(longer duration), better flowing intake and exhaust. pretty much it...
