Need some ideas for my 92 Accord

[heathershonda]

I want to start fixing up my 92 Accord Ex up...I need some adviceon what I should get and do first.

[sickhonda]

Depends on what you're after...LOOKS or SPEED...also what type of budget?

[heathershonda]

Right now I'm looking for alittle something under the hood...I already have an AEM cold air intake. So right now I guess i'm looking for the performance. Looks can wait !!
And as for the budget... i'm only working a part time job, but make enough. So maybe one upgrade a month.

Looking for anyone who has an 92-93 accord...need some tips please !!

[killah_xft]

first I'd add an exhaust, and new exhaust manifold.. the next step I'd take is to add rims, and rubber, then I'd go ahead and see what else you'd want to do, and how far you want to take it. lightweight pulley's/flywheel and a new camshaft would be the next on my list.

What kind of exhuast should I go for?? Was thinking about DC Sports...is that a good choice??

[killah_xft]

dc sports is good, it all depends on how much you want to spend. and what fits your car, as well as what style muffler/tip you want. you can also get tuneable mufflers, and with a silencer so it's not as loud during daily driving.. it's best to get a full catback system, so that you don't have to get any custom piping. kits usually come to fit your vehicle, and they just bolt on. really it depends on how much you want to spend, and what it is you want. Exhaust manifolds you can expect to pay around $200-400 depending on what you get, the catback exhaust system can go from 200-500 depending on the muffler/material/and design. and remember different mufflers give a different exhaust note, and benifits. I would suggest 2.25-2.5 inch piping.. are you planning to put a turbo on your car? if so I'd hold off on the exhaust manifold. so that you will not have one standing around once you get the turbo manifold.

So sad but true.

[killah_xft]

not true... sure you can swap out the motor, but that's the easy way out.. and buying a better/faster car just beats the point that you "want to pull more horses out of an economy car" that's what tuning is all about, getting the most out of what you have.

Ok, I was looking around for some exhaust systems and this is what I found for my car. Greddy EVO,Greddy SP, DCSports and Apexi World Sport series. Which one of these you guys think is the best for the money??

[killah_xft]

I like the SP ($590) for it's shape, and polish, the evo ($599) is a smaller muffler, and the piping is a bit larger I believe. the DCsports exhaust is a little expensive I believe, at $659. The Apexi (104-KH08) WS is a nice little unit, and probably the less expensive of the set.. my personal choice I would go with the Apexi, not only because it is the most affordable one, but it also looks more stock, and I'm a sucker for a sleeper.

[heathershonda]

Actually I found the Greddy SP for $472...Greddy EVO $479 and the DCSports for only $528. Does the Apexi have that deep sound??

[strodda]

i actually just installed an apex ws today. and only to emphasize how much i like it... its fuckin great!!!

huge increase in pipe width over stock, and with a single 4" tip, its bigger, but other than being all chromed out cause its new, not very noticable... like xtf said, great for sleepers. i have the full ihe and even with a highflow cat, the exhaust is still quiet. now what i hear mostly at wot is the rumble of the engine. made even louder because i switched out the cai and put in a sr intake.

check this out. this is where i got mine from. great service and it was at my door in 3days(excl. weekend).
