where are you getting two headers for 100 bucks and a 3 dollar exhaust?
why are you buying n/a mods if you're gonna get a turbo?
why are you gonna put a small turbo on a v6?

If your here to learn, heres my advise to you.

Save your money, get good headers, and parts.

With cars, for the most part, you get what you pay for, keep that in mind.

Granted, an e-gay cat back is ok in this case, but I'd just buy it for the mid-pipe and buy a good muffler and header.

And if your this new to things, you have TONS to read before you even think about going for boost.

Hell, don't even mod your car for now. Just learn how to drive it, go to the track with it, go to autox's and learn what mods you want/need to Taylor the car to your preferences rather than just assuming what everyone else does to a honda is what you should do.

ha very true thsnks for the input

 

[Darkness]

ebay exhausts are fine. headers aren't
/thread. and accord v6's are better for supercharging than turboing

 

[neffman]

yeah but ive read on here you can only run like 4-5 psi and id think 3 grands worth 40-50 horse and whats wrong with the headers?

 

[rgb17]

headers are a lot easier to screw up during manufacturing than an exhaust. ie fitting. its better for the headers to be legit, even if that means more money.

 

[rnstein69]

dont waste your money on generic/cheap ebay crap. do it once, do it right and buy quality.

search, read faq's and stickies, learn.

 

[rgb17]

i agree with the do it once do it right theory, but im broke as hell so im settling for an ebay exhaust for now...

 

[Darkness]

exhausts are fine. when you start talking headers and intake manifolds then do it brand name

 

[Darkness]

3 grand is not worth 40-50 horses. only in the honda world. get a supercharger, upgrade the pulley and get some nice header, then tune it. you'll make more than 40-50 more horses.

 

[neffman]

allright thanks guys think im getting my things straightened out now to the supercharger prolly wouldnt happin right now but i would like some info would have money in under a year and i think theres only one for the j30 out there??

 

[Darkness]

supercharger is just so much less complicated. you'll make more power with a turbo but it's alot of fab on an accord. the deciding factor is usually the intake manifold on supercharger configurations with similar type motors

o and also what about lowering springs. ik they say that you should replase shock and all but what about just megan 2" drop springs? and hoe hard is the install?

always replace shocks and struts. you can't lower stock shit like that or it'll blow prematurely and end up costing you more in the end. if you're hard up for money get tokico's

 

[neffman]

when you say blow what do you mean?

 

[Darkness]

when you say blow what do you mean?

the cylinders blow. as in the shock/strut. will stop working and you'll be riding on nothing but a spring which will affect handling/safety/tire wear&tear. suspension is something you NEVER cheap out on
