Raley Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 On the intake id go with the cheapest thing you can find, throw a bypass filter and a decent cone filter at the end. Or just a ram air (again cheap) what sound are you going for on exhaust. Finally where do you lige, are.there inspections? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raley Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Any twin loop would do the trick then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIR_VTEC Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Well for an accord just like any other honda out there, the standard three mods are Intake: completely your preference if you want a CAI or Short Ram, you would want to get the bypass valve for a CAI, but those arent always 100% helpful...but again its personal preference. I have the AEM V2 on my RsX and its a CAI and its awesome, plus has a nice sound to it unlike the cheaper brands. Header: If you want to get some headers the most moderately priced are Megan headers, you can go the route of DC which are a bit better. I have 4:1 headers, just always liked the 4:1 instead of 4-2-1 style Exhaust: Now if you want an exhaust that looks nice and isnt hugh POS or can on the car, I suggest you getting the Apexi World exhaust....this is what it looks and sounds like...think you might like it... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyVDaj1dz-w&feature=fvw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raley Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 if she is keeping stock piping with just a new muffler its more just to not get something from ebay... and it will sound fine. the resinator and cat will quiet it down a ton. and yes that is a twin loop.

SIR_VTEC Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 it will all depend if she wants to keep the stock piping and if she does buying a canister wont do anything to the car besides make it louder than stock, also stock piping is just what it is just stock piping no performance increase by addint a canister, you might as well buy an axel back if you want to save on money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raley Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 The muffler will be welded on to the existing pipe. it will all depend if she wants to keep the stock piping i dunno what she wants to do... edit cuz i suck at typing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIR_VTEC Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Well they can range anywhere from 300 - 600 Well I found this on Raceinspired.com Apexi World Exhaust its actually as much as a axelback its $489.95, its faily cheap considering its a full cat back system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelSolSweetie Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 first.. If you are very worried about 'cheaper' then you shouldnt build or mod a car quality should be the main concern.. a lot of good systems are round about the same price.. if that 639 system is good it'll probably be about the same everywhere unless its a knockoff and you wont need bigger spark plug wires.. good plugs should be your main concern.. thicker wires wont really help you where the car is right now.. go ngk for wires and plugs of course good oil is always helpful to the life and performance of the car of course.. i only run royal purple with k&n filter in all of our cars including DD.. (race/fun cars will get royal purple or amsoil)... if royal purple is out of your budget mobil 1 is a decent option listen to raley about the CAI.. you'd be perfectly fine with a cheap short ram and a good filter.. green racing filters are amazing.. dont bother buying a full cold air cause its not going to gain you any power esp. if your not doing a full exhaust.. if anything theres a possibility you might hurt it.. IF you are really bent on a full cold air so you can say you have one then get one that is PROVEN.. which means more $$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 amsoil is good if you want to spend that money.. how many miles does the car have? forgot to ask that earlier.. if its over 150k i wouldnt switch to full synthetic right now.. amazing how it can find a leak or weak seal.. royal purple is quite good for quite a lot less then amsoil.. and if you burn oil in an older honda you cant just go buy amsoil at your local store AEM is a good brand.. i would still stick with raley and my idea of a cheap tube with a good filter.. same thing lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIR_VTEC Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Well Put Sarah, basically it comes to this...it cost to floss....and buying cheap parts wont really get you much, your basically going to have to bargin hunt on ebay if you want it any cheaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 i have an ebay header.. cause i dont care i'm not going to spend a few hundred on a header for my DD lol I dont really believe in building hondas for major power cause the car wasn't designed to be a sports car.. it was meant to be a reliable gas saver basically (and fun if you have a del). Mine has mods yes (swap to zc.. full exhaust.. short ram.. clutch/flywheel.. etc etc).. but it was modded to make the car fun for me to daily and still get 35 mpg.. and replace all the crap that the prevoius owners f'ed up lol #1 priority should be fixing everything wrong with the car.. and i know there is stuff wrong because it is a 93 accord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raley Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 fixing parts is step 1, i agree with sarah, but replacing the parts with better ones is always good kteller has exhaust kits, wont have a muffler but if you know someone who welds (most shops will do it) you can save lots on a full exhaust. also, for the intake, cold air (ones that go into the bumper) work great to suck up water, i dunno how many cars ive had to cut the cold air pipe in half because it was sucking up water and killing motors.

DelSolSweetie Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 i never said replace with oem.. depends on what it is for example: blown shocks/struts.. i'd replace with better if something like an axle was messed up.. might as well go oem cause it doesnt need anything else.. same for tie rods and all that brakes bad.. oem would honestly be fine since it isnt going to be put through anything hard but upgrading those isnt a bad idea.. as long as it is still a street compound and not drilled/slotted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raley Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 wait, the sound of my exhaust has to do with color blind-ness?! frack!!!!!! oh, and the wheels are orange for the fact its a white car in michigan winters... you should know about full white outs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 thats not a bad idea. i am partial to green. i bet i could use some safety neon green for a sweet look on my winter beater and be uber safe too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelSolSweetie Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 does your car have 4 wheel disc? why does your brother need to do a headlight restore.. go get the kit from the store and do it yourself.. its not hard.. if they are really bad you follow the directions for using the sand paper pads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
