Trying to enhance the speed of my Accord. Need some information on my options for making it faster ( chips, air intake etc.). I am new at this, just trying to get into mods.

 

dont bother. They are worthless. (Chips) Intake header exhaust will help you out.

Should this be my first mod, where i will see the biggest gain

If so then what kind of Intake header exhaust should I get for my 96 LX

Any websites i should check out?

 

You have so many options. As far as intake, you cant go wrong with an AEM CAI. But I would go custom because it will cost you 80% less.

Header, well DC Sports, Kamakazi, Greddy, OBX all make good ones. Make sure it is ceramic coated.

Exhaust, take your pick. There are many out there. Some loud, some quiet. Depends on what you want.

 

only prob. i have seen with ceramic is that they tend to rust after a while. depends on where you live though i guess.

 

you can also look into the apexi AFC....if you do this and the intake/header/exhaust then you should see a good amount of power gain (again, don't expect mirracles, it's still an accord)....and remember one thing....you get what you pay for...so the knock off cheap *** $40 intakes are not your best bet....good luck!

btw.... http://www.groupbuycenter.com is a good place to get a lot of your parts....consider it the e-bay of import performance!

Hondata is a waste of money on an n/a engine with bolt-ons.

Okay.

Problem: Hondata is a waste of money on an n/a engine with bolt-ons.

Solution: Turbocharge that bitch!

 

 

 

what kind of gains did you see with the obx header?

 

.A lil more power.
