Default First mod parts
I got a 2000 Accord coupe with the 3.0L VTEC engine, and i was wondering in the people's opinion, what would be the best parts to buy that would increase engine performance under $500?

Either intake or exahust is where i'd start.... and if you wanted you can get them both for under $500.00 get OBX Headers and a Bomz Intake off ebay

Thanks. What about a ECU? AEM or Greddy engine management systems. And just wondering, any good body kits out there?

I wouldn't worry about a fuel management system until you really start to do something serious,, like turbo, supercharger, or extreme engine build.

You may be able to get exhaust, headers, and a cheap intake for a midge over 500 as long as you stick with obx and a cheap ebay intake.
