c'mon now main...no matter what i do, my poor accord will never be better than those two cars. and as for turbo and H22, turbo wouldn't help as much as a supercharger would in autoX because of the lag...i need low end power, which is why i wouldn't want an H22. i like my F23A1. i honestly don't see why the 6th gen accord wasn't built up more...and i wish people would realize that the accord's are not a slow...main reason people call accords slow is because they buy the automatic 4door I4, load it down with big ass speakers, amps, 25lb 18" wheels, then wonder why it doesn't move...then they take it out and try to use it for the wrong type of racing. the accord is not a drag car (although it could be), but it's a great autocross/road race car when setup right...i really wish i had overcome my hatred for leather and got the V6 now tho...i'd be dangerous...but the accord's not done. i'm gonna continue to build it. it's getting bigger sway bars, urethane bushings/motor mounts, lower tie bar, bigger throttle body, intake manifold, cam if i can find a good one, cam gear, possibly internal work, pulleys, Buddy club2 body kit, arctic blue pearl paint job, recaro speed seats with takata harnesses, black interior, and whatever else i can think up along the way...but i still want a new car....and the EVO or a TSX + supercharger are the two i've narrowed it down to...

yeah i heard about that too, but i want a new car now lol im not in a HUGE rush tho, im not buying anything until the 06 models come out, i just want to have mind made up long before so i know how much i need to save up for a down payment. if i get the TSX i wanna put 10 down, the EVO 15. i may go ahead and buy the TSX, have it paid for by then, then buy the EVO X when it comes out lol or just buy an EVO IX MR and trade it in when the EVO X comes out...i dunno what im gonna do yet...i am going to drive both cars tomorrow tho, maybe that'll help... thanks for all the input so far guys
