Default New here and need advice

Hey, what's up. My name is Ben and I'm just here to introduce myself. I'm currently driving a 2006 Honda Accord EX-L and I'm loving it. But I find myself wanting a little more performance out of it and was wondering what modifications I can make to my car. I pretty much don't know anything, but I'm learning and all suggestions are welcome.

Im guessing a 3.0L? or 2.4L? and is it a manual or automatic? Anyways, you could check Summit Racing (dot) com or Auto Anything (dot) com. And welcome, sit and stay a while

Welcome Ben

There are a few bolt on items that can help such as a cold air intake (Fujita), changing pulleys and so forth. The exhaust manifold is part of the block so headers are not an option. A more performance oriented exhaust system will also help because it is less restrictive.

You can't make it into a screaming monster but throttle response and overall drivability can be improved slightly. Keep in mind even bolt on modifications are expensive these days.
