Default Mods for 2013 Accord

Has anyone done anything fun to their 9th gen accord yet? I can't find much out there in terms of performance mods and wondered if they are just not available yet. Would love to hear/see what some others are thinking about or have done already.

not sure which one you have, but i'm not sure I would want to increase power too much with a CVT. The car is also a brand new, so there will be R&D time before products are released.

Many like that axle back exhaust. Parts are slowly coming.

Same exact engine as the 2012. A Takeda air intake would greatly help.

I thought about the intake, but wasn't sure it was worth it for just an additional 10hp. Was waiting for AEM to come out.

There's a Takeda axleback out. That's pretty much it for now.

I would like to see a larger sway bar coming out soon. It could sure use it. I wonder if the Accord Sport has any suspension or sway bar upgrades that we can do to your 2013 Accord LX/EX. I was also wondering if there are any differences in the suspension of a Sedan vs. Coupe or Coupe 6-sp. I like the way the Coupe looks and wouldn't mind getting one. My wife just got a '13 EX Sedan last week and it's OK, but I am not thrilled with the handling. The CVT tranny is awesome though.

the 2013 does not have the same engine as 2012. The 2013 is the K24W, which has direct injection, 6 speed manual or CVT.
2008-2012 had K24Z2/K24Z3, regular port injection, 5 speed auto and manual, but higher redline.

there seems to an intake for 2013 now also;

I bought a 4 cyl 6 speed coupe near the end of dec, I love the car it could use a little help for cornering.

The car is quicker with the eco button off, the fuel miles don't suffer at all with it off.

It's tough getting used to a car with a soft ride again, but I will suffer thru it somehow.
