Ey guys, i got a an 02 Lx Accord ans i was just wondering is there any real effective way to add more power? I already have an AEM CAI, DC Headers, Evo Exhaust, AEM pulleys and hyperground... I dont know what the current power is dyno'ed right now, but is there any way to add more power without doing crazy stuff like engine swaps, turbo/super charging or nitrous?? LMK, im really stumped, i know its a heavy car w/ 17's, but man, i could use some more horses.
Isn't it funny when people do exactly what you DO NOT want them to do?

The simple answer is yes. Unlike common disbelief like the guy above, you can find racers who use the F series engines to incredible power levels. Just hang out at different Honda forums to know what I mean. To help you out, some less expensive power adders are bored out throttle body, port and polished intake manifold, more aggressive camshaft, and V-AFC tuning. You're basically "tuning" your engine now that your I/H/E are done to get better air flow. Also, if you have an auto tranny, switching to a manual tranny is a worthwhile option if you can get good mechanic help for cheap.
