Hi everyone,
I have been doing up my “Honda Accord 1999 1.8i hatchback” over the past few months... but all of the modifications have been visual!
I am now looking to start modifying it to make it sound better and increase its power.
I would like to begin with the two most obvious modifications – an induction kit and an exhaust backbox, since they make the car sound better and look better (and also increase the performance a bit) then I would like to do more “hidden” things to the car to increase its performance.
I have booked my car in to get a K&N induction kit fitted but I would like some advice on the whole exhaust thing.
I am only looking to spend around £200 for the backbox. To begin with I would just like something to give the car a good look, enhance the noise, and maybe the power a wee bit – then, in the future I could maybe add to the exhaust system to make it even better.
I have two questions for you experts reading my post – any advice would be greatly appreciated!
1. Could someone please offer me some advice on the backbox? What should I get. Is getting a backbox to begin with a good idea?
2. Secondly. Once I have my induction kit and backbox fitted what’s next. Could you provide a list of engine / exhaust / performance modifications I should do next? In level of importance?
