Skunk2 dosn't make cams for F series motors.

There's only one company that makes cams for the F23, though I don't remember what it is. There are better things to do then cams for your accord.

In actuality, there are two companies that make camshafts for the F23. They would be Web, and Gude. Ones from Web are just regrinds. Not sure of the pricing for those. I know that a member of HS got camshafts from Gude for $510. Some members can vouch for the claimed gain of 20-30hp.

Only a handful of companies make a throttle body for the F23. I've seen advertisements from Holley, and JG Edelbrock. Just seen listings from the other companies. In case you didn't know, a Prelude throttle body will fit, and work properly on a 6th Gen. More choices to choose from now. And by getting that new throttle body, you would need to get a better intake manifold to take advantage of the new amount of airflow.

Unfortunately, no company makes an intake manifold for a 6th Gen. Someone on H-T threw up the idea of using a dual-stage IM from an Audi A4/A6. Not a bad idea. But not sure if it would fit, and if the ports would match up. An H22A IM would be perfect. But the ports wouldn't match up. An idea of mine was just to do a P&P on the stock IM. Might be just as good as an aftermarket one.

If you intend to upgrade the throttle body, don't go with one that has a bore of 70mm. Those are usually used in cars with some type of FI. Go with 62mm, or something in that area.

Did Venom come out with an intake manifold? I know Gude had a package with about everything. Not sure if they had an intake manifold either. They did cams for sure.

I think Gude does a lot of port and polishing than replacing your engine internals. Maybe they'll replace your cams but intake manifolds are probably ported and polished, same with throttle body. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
