Isn't 10-seconds in the 1/4 mile fast enough?

:slap: I didn't said doing ALL that :doh: btw, with the fiberglass modification, you'll have the SHOW look as well

N20 kit only cost $400 = 60 more HP

Removing components doesn't cost u anything. Try to sell some of those and you'll have enough money to replace the body works + Nawz kit

Ok, now with the A/C it only puts strain on the motor when the A/C is on and the compressor is running, so if I dont use the A/C then its the same right?

A/C weighs a ton, and it does spin even when the compressor is not running - of course, it's not really putting up any resistance.

You may wish to get a set of under-drive pulleys from AEM or a similar model to reduce the drag of the accesories (alternator, P/S)...

Intake, Header, and Exhaust are "cheap" upgrades, but by the time you do those, you might as well swap to just a stock H22.

You may wish to advance your timing which will "increase compression" - well, umm..not exactly that way, but it's kind of the same principal....and produce a ltitle more power. Just be careful of detonation and you'll have to run premium gas.

Basically, without sacrificing a little comfort, (sound, etc)......you're going to have a hard time increasing power. If I knew what gen Accord you had I could give you a little more specific info.

You can also disable the EGR valve (not emissions legal, and you have to do some extra stuff to make it work correctly and not hurt power), you can do the throttle body bypass, lots of stuff..

...may want to check out my sig for a good resource for you.

Exactly how do you go about doing this without moving a whole tooth on the cam sprocket? Is there an exact science to doing this correctly?

Thanks,
Brent
