Default Getting a 07 Accord, had some questions

I am going to be purchasing a 07 Honda Accord EX L V6 very soon. I was wondering if anybody had any experience with aftermarket performance modifications. What works well, what doesnt, etc. Ive searched online for performance mods and have had a hard time finding things. I found a K&N typhoon intake and was wondering if anybody has an opinion on that intake or on any other mods. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

As nice as the new Accords look (trust me, i would like to get one of those) im in a position right now that im getting a real good deal on one which i would doubt i would get on a brand new 08, plus i have to resolve very soon.

I have left our 06 bone stock and plan to leave it that way. It runs pretty good as it is.

Header is a no no as I believer that's molding in as part of the engine? Something along those lines, don't quote me for sure on that.

I dont think there's any large recalls or anything of that nature out for these cars.

Good looking cars, K&N and AEM are always good intake makers.

I would look at that and exhaust for now, I dont think there's too much more out there

Headers can be pricey, but you need to watch what you're doing when purchasing some and especially installing it. Since the car is recent, it will be hard to mod it, but i'm sure more things will come out soon. But as muffin man said, intake/exhaust might be the way to go.
