If all you are doing is I/H/E you won't need to bother with the ECU for now.

As for what headers to get I'm not sure. Someone else will have to chime in on that one. I'm not up to speed on the 05 aftermarket.

DC Sports Header is your only option, it comes in cast and stainless steel.

You do have options on a turbo kit ECU, but getting one with minor bolt-ons is pointless, we just had this discussion at our gen7 specific website. There are a number of piggyback options, with kpro being the best, and most expensive, and I'm the only one in the US that is running it right now on a 7th gen accord, and its worth every cent.

Getting a ECU on a bolts on is useless?
I've heard lots of people saying that, changing a ECU is the best way to get more HP for my car.
If I get the ECU, then how much HP am I expecting?

I am trying to getting all bolts on
Header, intake, exhaust.
I am thinking that bolts on will giving me about 15hp.

Should I just wait and save money and do a engine swap?
like K20 engine? and get super charge later?
