What next?
Alright, I have a 96 accord ex and i have the basic i/h/e setup. Now I'm looking for more power w/o turbo, NOS, etc...
I know that cam pullys and some cam work are next, according to some members on this board, but I need some help.
First off, what exactly do cam pullys do, and what kind of horsepower can I expect to get from them?
Next, what kind of cam work am i looking at? Cost? HP increase?
I am also looking to get my car dyno tuned once I get all my parts. Is this a good idea, and will it be worth my money?
Thanks for your replys

pistons, camshaft, cam, rods since you seem like you wanna go the NA route, although I would highly recommend the FI route that is really the only way you're going to feel a difference on our F22b engines, or swap it out.
Invest your money in learning about the car first before you began working on it. Going out and buying parts and installing them, or having them installed for you, without knowing what they technically do for your car means it is just another riced out POS.
ForcedAccord is somewhat right in that N/A F22's will not have the same feel as F/I F22's, but you will feel a difference when you work on them, you just have to know what you are feeling.
I am about the only person that will tell you this and it is just my opinion, but it is honestly the truth.
If you want to find out what horsepower gains a part will give you call the manufacturer and talk to them, that is what I do. You will find that most companies will be more than happy to answer your question.

I'm referring to a breath taking "difference" in feel of performance. I mean w/ intake and all that you will hear/feel a little difference, but for any REAL drastic change, you really have to invest some time and money. Agreed w/ urban though, learn all that you can so YOU can make the make the most informed decision, as opposed to listening to us yabble on about things that appease to us.
Urban and Forced, thanks for your replies. I am not seeking to become another ricer on the block, they are VERY abundant here in Florida.
Forced: I definatly hear what you are saying about FI, however I am just a college kid living and saving off what my parents send me each month. Thus, I am looking for the NA route rather than the very costly (IMO) FI route. I will save that for my next car.
Thanks again
