i just got an 89 accord LX 5spd like 2 days ago. im looking around to find stuff that i could deck it out with, like intake, headers and stuff. but i noticed its rather difficult to find stuff for the 3rd generation, i would really appreciate some advice and opinions for this 17 year old boy who wants a cool car, plz email me at [email protected] with any suggestions, thanks!

Sense you have a carberator an intake would be tough to find unless you make a custom one. As for headers you can get some here www.nopi.com. Do not get the pacesetter exhaust (the header and highflow cat atre fine.) get a 2.25 mandrel bent one from a muffler shop and weld any peformance muffler on. I recomend dynomax super turbo mufflers. If emmisions tests are not a problem then look into a webber carb and a regound cam check with justanothermike or yk86 for more info on reground cams.

i want to do this to all the LXi's
:flame: LXi

anyways yeah i've been to that site before and as far as intakes, they only have them for LXi's, so i was wondering whats the difference between the LX's and LXi's? And the LX's are 2.0L right?

lol thx for putting my with my newbiness about cars... but i do have an extreme interest in them
