99 Accord EX sedan vtec 4cyl
Hey, i'm new here and so far i really like the forums. Anyways, I have a 99 honda accord EX and its a 4 door. It has a V-tec 4cyl and i havnt changed anything on it. Is it worth putting pro. parts in it or is it just a waste of time?
If you do think i should upgrade please tell me what i should look into. thanks |

Welcome to HS
 Are you talking about speed parts or suspension parts? Engine mods are worth it if you're not expecting big gains, just some noise and a little more power. If you want big gains, you'll have to do an engine swap or add a turbo.

Accordin - 55 hp (crank) from I/H/E and cam? On a SOHC engine that doesn't seem likely. Did you actually dyno it? Not trying to be an ass, just curious.
Anyway, with basic boltons, you can expect 10-12, maybe a little more hp to the wheels. Not bad for a little boost, but nothing crazy.

The hosts from that show are freaking stupid, but yeah, that's weird about the focus. Just depends on how restrictive the stock system was.

Neh man, its totally cool. One thing's for sure... you have more power than me  I've just heard that Gude claims (like every other manufacturer) are a little on the high side. I'd be very interested to see your dyno though because there's not too much out there for our SOHC engines.
