I will soon be getting a '94 Accord LX V-Tec, other than exterior designing i want to do, the first thing i want to get done to the engine is a performance racing chip. Does anyone know where i could get one online and about how much it would cost me? Thank you

jet performance makes chips for most hondas. you should check them out. cost is around 2-300 dollars, but seriously, just swap in an h22, the chip will likely only gain 5 hp if you're lucky, don't waste money on anything else, h22 is the way to go.

I know but i want to keep it the engine i have, a friend of mine tells me there's a lot you can do with a V-Tec engine. Which i don't doubt, c'mon what are some top of the line mods that i can do and only spend about maybe $1200, i know there has to be something?

if your only gonna spend that dont expect to get a huge difference out of it. for that amount of money you wont see a huge increase in power. with that money the best thing to do would buy a set of bigger pistons and some rods for some power u can feel.

yes they do make alot of stuff for an accord. turbo, engine swaps, nos, allmotor. you just have to look try taking a look into the gude head packages. It's like an entire head assembly with a new intake manifoldand everything.
