Cheap and performance do not go together. I would just stay stock. Is it at least a 5 speed? Also, a chip wont do anything but make you run rich.

Nothing will give you a big gain and be cheap. Nitrous is probably the cheapest route to gain power... but its still not that cheap. Engine swap and turbo are other options, but that nasty green stuff we all love comes into play again. A tip, check out the Accord FAQ up top, and find the Guide to Basic Accords.

I did intake and exhaust and if it made a differnce it isn't very noticable atleast not for me. It may have helped some but I don't think it helped enough to warrent the cost although it does look and sound better. I've done a few other things to my car and it still is slow.
