What's the best way I could increase my cars horse power?
I have a 2014 Honda Accord Coupe 4 cylinder that I bought a little while ago. The horsepower is about 185 and I wanted to know what was the best way I could kick it up to around 230-240?
Nitrous Oxide Injection is easiest and cheapest. But it works for the very short period.
Next is turbocharger. Require lots of equipments, mechanics, time tuning. "Light" turbo may boost 10%-15%. The more power boosting, the higher chance the *original* engine will be "destroyed".
BEST Way? Sell it, and Buy a Bigger, more powerful car
Little things, don't sink too much money into an accord. Just do simple things, add a better air filter, or some new exhaust. It's a 4 cylinder though, so there isn't really much you can do to make it fast. However, they sell these chips online that plug straight into your car's computer, and will give you about 60 more HP.
Trade it for the 6 cylinder. Seriously, why didn't you think about the need for hp before you bought it? Did you not do any research at all? Take it for a test drive? It's a 4 banger. Deal with it.
This car is still under the factory 5 year 60,000 mile power train warranty. Modify it at your own risk as you just might void the warranty. You really want to take that chance?
Any changes need to be notified to your insurance and will void your warranty.
It will cause other things to start breaking.
The Honda goes well enough already.
Best way would to be jack up the radiator cap and put a more powerful car under it.
Work lots and make lots of cash because the mechanic wants the money.
- What's the best engine (to add horse power and torque) that i can swap into my 1999 Honda Prelude? Currently i have an H22A but i heard that the k series or even the f series are better? Is this true or should i just stick with my H22A?
- How much extra horse power might I be getting for my Honda Pilot? I drive a 2003 Honda Pilot, and I have replaced the stock exhaust system with a straight pipe all the way back to a magnaflow muffler. I have also added on a spectre cold air intake. I have noticed a small increase in response time and acceleration. I was just curious if anyone has an educated guess.
- I need some advice on a horse trailer situation? My dad has just bought a Honda CR-V. It can tow up to 2 tonnes. We're looking to buy a horse trailer but we're not sure about whether to get a single or double trailer. Could our car tow a double trailer with 2 15hh horses in it? Or if needs be, we would get a single one as we only have 1 horse anyway, but a double one would be more suitable but we don't mind.
- What's the best way to start removing paint on a car? So I just bought a Honda civic (used off crag's list) and I want to paint it flat green, no gloss or anything. I want to (at least try) to do it on my own, Not sure if ill paint it myself but I want to strip the paint and lay the primer. However I'm not sure what's the best way to start. And what's faster to remove the paint and clear coat.
