First of all, I drive a 2k1 EX V6 Accord Coupe. Let me clarify a few things.



Dual exhaust is stock on v6 accords 98-02. ok thats outta the way



2000-2002 Honda Accord V6 3.0L

Addtional 42-48 wheel horsepower.

Powered by a screw type blower unit

for smooth power delivery.

$4995

this is the only supercharger available for the accord engine so far. Do note that installing this comptech sc would require the installation of a transmission upgrade ... tran cooler... and what not $3000+

Headers $1249.00



Exhaust$669.00

so if u think about it... sure maybe the car was putting out enough horsepower to beat the cobra but all in all, how much did he/she spend to beat it ?



The accord sold/sells for 23k pre-tax, so this person put out an extra 10k + labor



seems to me like that money could have been better spent on a nicer faster car IMO
I'm glad he clarified all that up..
