Unless your Accord is a V6, you mean headeR. Only 1.

Dont waste your money on a "chip." Useless without either a built motor, or forced induction on these cars.

Welcome tho!

You just said the only relatively cheap options for more "power." You won't pick up much cheaply.

Just save up and go turbo or build a swap. That'll get you some better power to work with.

Sorry man, no performance chips for Honda's. These aren't Vdubs or Audis (or various other brands if you must).

there is a few things you can do to free up power, not much but they are free indeed...there is a throttle body mod that you can do to drop the temp coming from the hot antifreeze running through it, spark plug gap opening direction, advance spark timing a little bit and the egr block if you have obd1 (unless you want a cel popping up). I gathered a ton on info on diy for the cd5 accord that can work for you, I have a h22a in mine though so my engine will be a "little" different than yours. there is tons of things you can do very cheaply if you are on a budget, not exactly for more power but to utilize the power you have in a much more efficient way and therefore seem like you gained power. I will post up pics of my car soon and the specs on it.
