Get Ur ss there really good plus the aem if wat i belive they mess up the alternator.

 

Don't mean to be a d1ck, but try searching.

If you're willing to do F/I then that's your best bet to get the most hp and tq gains IMO.

 

i have searched all over but people have their own opinions... and i wanted to see what got the majority vote as far the best brand performance mods with the most gains, JCB... thanks for the info Accord2dron

 

for cia go for aem
for pullies go ur

exhaust and headers are all opionfull

but for accords comptech makes great stuff though expensive

 

if you want to overpay for a pipe and filter, get an aem intake. if you want to pay the right price, however, just get a quality ebay intake. headers produce some good gains. youll get the most bang per buck if you go with nitrous.

 

but nitrous u can say bye bye tranny alot faster

 

maybe do the do the CLS/TLS camshafts upgrade, then supercharger, and unichip. Those are purely for power gains.

 

how much would cl-s camshafts run me..? and what would be the expected gains to the wheels...? yeah... i really not to fond of nitrous becuase i see it as the cheap way out and its really not your engine pushing the power... but thanks for all the help...

 

CL-S cams are about 300-350 for parts (retail) and about 450+ for install. depends on where you go.

 

There is info everywhere... dude we are now in the 7th gen era... there is everything to know about 6th gens ..... SEARCH MAH brotha

 

Screw the little bolt-on crap and go straight for S/C.

 

SC and tuning = :up2:

 

SC is your best bet for a power mod.

 

what about port and polish... im totally clueless to what this does and is it worth it becuase i know its kinda pricey but im looking into it...??

 

3.5 engine swap with SC

 

Unichip, AEM Intake, Alphawerks Headers, Greddy Exhaust

 

is it reccomended to get the unichip if i only have an intake,hotwires, and spark plugs...??

 

umm no,

the most affordable way to mod the 6gen AV6 while getting the most NA gains is as follows:

NGK Iridium Plugs-- affordable alternative to densos. ($30)
Greddy Radiator Cap-- affordable mod to help contain high temps ($15)
Mugen T-stat-- A must have for reducing high engine temp ($60)
Mugen Fan Switch-- A must have for reducing high engine temp ($35)
Stock Intake -- remove the resonator,put a K&N air filter($25) in there.
Megan Headers--- most affordable headers, good quality ($175)
Megan Crank Pulley-- Excellent Mod, good quality ($30)
stock exhaust-- agian remove both the pre-muff + and resonator($55)
(screw aftermarket exhaust)

CL-S Cams-- $240

and lastly

Unichip--$600( you also get a free V6P grounding kit with this) !!

this is the proven method for the AV6, unless you are loaded with cash, supercharging is not a viable option. I have this setup minus the unichip( broke right now), and i could not be happier with my car.

 

thanks, i really appreciate the help lxaccord... everyone keeps stating "get the unichip" so i figured it might be beneficial... sorry off subject but hey would you people reccomend going with 17's or 18's looking at all aspects such as performance wise would their actually be a significant loss to where i'll be able to tell if i go with 18's or should i go with 17's and just lower it which will not cover the wheel gap entirely... either way i go i am lowering.. any help is appreciated...what experiences have you all had with your rims, what there a "great" loss going with 18's...

Sorry That is a waste...

N/A Mods that will actually get you a lil more extra hp/tq IS:

Comptech TRANS COOLER
UR pullies, altenator, AC, and Crank pullies (really all you need is the crank)
CAI- they are extrememly cheap used, or get an ebay brand, they are all the same thing, metal tube and cone filter.
Headers- I went with comptech (USED for 500.00), or go with stone, or alphaworks
Exhaust- That is your prefrence, no exhaust sounds bad for the J30's , I had magnaflows
Spark plugs, NGK Iriduim
This should be your last to N/A mods:

Tuned Apex-i VAFC- this will cost you 300 (Installed, tuned, and Vafc)
CL-S cams 300 bucks..


Then you should get into FI

Comptech SC
Either 6 speed swap or DR Evil Tranny..

AS far as unichip, for 600 bucks for only 10whp / 10 tq that is too expensive, my money is on the VAFC

Hope that helped

 

well i wanted to keep my low-end, but if you want to sacrifice that and get an exhaust and a aem cai , go ahead.( i could care less)


The MUgen T-stat, and fan switch are well worth even on a NA AV6. A couple of members on ACL did dyno tests with some AV6, TL-P,etc, and after repeated dyno runs, they were still getting consistent results. Without the t-stat, and the fan-switch, some cars lost HP.

i never said that the t-stat, and fan switch make your car gain more HP, there job is to retain what you already have, on average the reduction in engine temp is 10-12 degrees cooler. If cooler temps interest you, then this is the mod to get.

BTW i forgot about the tranny cooler, its a great mod, just don't get the comptech one, its a overpriced pile of metal, get a B&M trans cooler

 

BEST mod i've done to my car is my suspension set up, Eibach ProKit and Koni Yellows, i got it done 2 months after i got my car, it made it look 100X better. All the other performance mods are great too, but unfortuntely, they're not very high on my list, since i believe my AV6 is a lost cause.... LoL

 

I only care about low end, so these are mods that help throughout the band. There may be more. Here's a list..

Denso ik16''s or ngk irridiums
ur ultra ss (but all you really need is the crank pulley, so maybe Megan?)
headers
short ram intake
better tires?
unichip, if you can afford it

I have the helix throttle body spacer and the transmission cooler/filter, but I dont think they add any mentionable power.

 

do spark plugs add more power, or what do they do?

 

The main goal of the plugs is better idle, better fuel economy.

But the weird thing i noticed is at freeway speeds, the car accelerated much better, lol, i don't know what's up ??

BTW i chose the NGK iridium plugs.
