Can Someone tell me how much horsepower the ole' Special Edition has stock fully loaded, and around how much do you think it has now since ive added a cat-back and intake?

 

130hp 139ft-lbs stock.

135 with mods at most. Maybe. On a cold day.

 

oh and what makes my 1997 Accord Special Edition so "Special", besides the floor mats?

 

Honestly, not all that much. Honda got lame with the 5th gen Special Edition and opted for the lesser engine with an automatic transmission and rear drum brakes, and gave it a moonroof and a CD deck. You'd think they'd use an EX-L or something.

Check out this article we posted on AD on the evolution of the Accord and you'll see what I mean: http://www.accordinglydone.com...d=883

 

dude they sell it for price of LX with power everything, auto tranny, sunroof, alloy wheels

 

That's because it IS an LX... with like 3 extra features.

 

you can say that...3 extra features for FREE, sounds good to me
some come with leather seat too...
