that was on level ground to btw, lol mabe i got the engine on crack lol

yay purple power full systhetic oil!!!

and afther seeing that vid, how dose it compare to oh say a civic lx or an si???
Mine was on a level road that I do 0-60 runs on sometimes. Maybe my ex holding the camera gave the appearance of an incline, but there wasn't any. My old accord could smoke any non-SI civic without FI or NOS ..... even some with NOS too. The SI is another story. My best friend has an EP3 and the Accord never stood a chance against it. I never got blown out of the water, but we've run next to each other at all speeds and the SI is a bit faster.

argh....my accord has high end power due to headers so the 0-60 time suffered. im prolly looking at 7-8 sec 0-60....i'll make a vid soon.

V6, 6th generation are fast on their feet. i say go for it,i regret not getting a V6now and then,the V6 accords are very unique cars for every generation. Providing the comfort of a family car but packing the power of a sports car but also harboring the gas mileage of a hybrid(if you don't drive aggressively)makes the V6 accord one of thebest sedan/coupeout there in my opinion, whether your a single daddrving across the state to go pick up your kid from your ex girlfriendor a new college student looking to experiment and turn your car into a racer or whatever, the accord is just a must have. 4 thumbs up

doingstalled start like that is sure way to kill your trans off.......... doing that causes MAJOR heat buildup in the trans

the best time I can do is about 5.9 seconds to 60 but I got headers and I do it from a standing start without trying to kill of my trans with a stall start (foot on brake, foot on gas)

Only on the 4 cyl. V6's love headers, yet I still find it very hard to believe ....... actually impossible, that Yeu is pulling over 20HP gain from headers alone.
