hi,

My name is Mike and I just purchased a 1996 Accord LX coupe. I have been registered here for a long time but never posted. I used to have a 1997 accord but never did anything to it. Right now my accord is stock the bone. Does anyone have any performance suggestions for my car?

Mike

weclome, i would suggest the basics, cold air induction, and exhaust tweaks, you'll get a little bit more power, and some nice sounds... plus it wont kill your wallet

depends also how you wana go, show or go? =x

Hey Mike, welcome to HS

Do you want power? Handling? Looks?

get some big dog rims like some 19" chrome and slam the car down to the ground so they can go inside the wheel wel thingy. It will be one hot son of biatch. J/k man. Make it look nice like maybe just some front lip and side skirts from WW.
