Default Hello to all!

I am new to this forum, so let me start off by saying hello and thanks for having me here. I have owned a Honda once for about a year and ventured off to the other imports to many issues/problems with tuning.

I am now a proud owner of a used 2003 Honda Accord 4 door 5speed. All of my vehicles have been manual transmission, since I like to control the power of the vehicle by each gear. My older honda was an EP3 Civic Hatchback (k20a3 powered) 2002 Si. I had a few bolt ons, but nothing really annoying (SRI, Header, VAFC-II, and Short shifter adapter).

This accord, I just plan on adding a Short Ram for fuel increase and not really looking at making some huge numbers on the k24 engine. I have always been a fan of either AEM or Injen products and replacing the filter with either a Apexi or K&N filter.

My previous cars through other manufacturers include the MazdaSpeed Protege 03 Black Mica (which I had lots of work and custom parts including FMIC, turbo manifold, downpipe to fit the Garret Gt3072R Ball Bearing turbo upgrade, Greddy Emanage ECM, walbro fuel pump, RC 500cc injectors, etc to lay down a total of 238Whp and 198lbs torque at 10psi on a dynojet). I have also had a used 2000 Nissan Sentra with a QR25de Spec V motor swap and Nismo bolt on pieces (sounded like cheap AEM products (lol)), and last, a 2002 Subaru WRX Impreza sedan that blew the block at 22psi with an FPGreen turbo and upgraded internals.

So, I am just focused on fuel economy and got a great deal on my Accord. Not really looking at tinkering or toying with a comfortable car. I have heard though from others that do the transplant of the TSX block to these 03-07 accords and get great results, which is very impressive.
