TOP 3 MODS FOR ACCORD V6/J-SERIES PLATFORM! | 2008 Honda Accord V6 Coupe Build

These are the top 3 mods I would suggest to maximize power per dollar on the Accord V6/J-Series platform! The HFPC/PCD, P2R Ported Runners & full exhaust system net you about 25-30 whp gain based on my baseline dyno run. Outside of these mods, I don't believe there are higher power gains per dollar spent!

[@abc.garage]

Yes sir 🤝

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

3:25 IDK what brand those are, but the ones I seen said 5-7 W hp, Just by themselves, no other supporting mods. Opening up the rest from intake manifold (35 37 swap, magnesium one (17160-RCJ-A01) from a hybrid for extra weight loss and extra cool points, literally, it helps with heat soak.) to exhaust tip definitely helps that figure..

[@abc.garage]

They’re RV6 HFPC

What are those 3 parts called and where can I compare them? do they work on Honda Accord 3.5L V-6 2008 Coupe?

[@abc.garage]

They’re all named in the video and yes it works with the car as long as it’s 2008-2012 and a v6

[@marvinogah]

Just did a stock j35z2 swap after repeatedly spinning a rod in my old engine. Now I have a new engine in great condition and an old one with parts I can try to port and polish on my own. Asides from the runners and intake manifold, what else do you think I can salvage for power on the old engine?

The J-Pipe, full exhaust, full intake

[@abc.garage]

Cleannnn

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

6:47 Not exactly. This engine does not have "headers" Headers attach to the HEAD. Those parts you talked about earlier the Precat / "HFPC's" ( High flow pre cat, but still essentially catalytic convertors ) on the side of the heads, THOSE are essentially "headers" the J pipe is essentially a "Y Pipe" that you find on a typical longitudinally mounted V engine applications. Look at the Mustang or Camaro. Our engine is turned transversely so the exhaust is a bit more confusing. They call it a "J" pipe for obvious reasons. This confusing naming scheme all boils down to Hondas weird head design on these cars. Rather than 3/4 ports coming our of the side of the head, we get one big one. Convoluted nonsense scheme. Side note.. Can you imagine how these engines would do with a typical high flow head design with 3 exhaust ports per side?

[@abc.garage]

It would be much more effective with 3 exhaust ports per side

[@Philllin]

gotta say PCD/HFPC is the best mod, well well worth it for anyone wondering if to get it.

[@abc.garage]

let them know! This is facts.

[@definitionXrp]

is it carb legal in ca?

Hey man did you get a local shop to install the spacer and runners ?

[@abc.garage]

Yes sir I did

[@beechewawa9989]

Do you get a check engine light? Did you have to tune the car after exhaust mods? That's a clean Accord.

[@abc.garage]

I had a CEL from the HFPC’s and yes the tune cleared it. My newest video is of the 91 tune (uploaded yesterday)

[@brous6194]

I have an 06 Odyssey with the j35, and I was wondering if most the parts from accords would also fit the odyssey

[@abc.garage]

No bc that’s a different motor

[@Meefehyjkoygsww]

Will these tips still apply to a 2007 v6 accord

[@abc.garage]

It still does because they have similar engines

[@erikreyes7443]

Looking at 9.5 gen 6-6 by end of yr. Do you have links to these mods?

@@abc.garage I have been pausing the video and looking stuff up. Haven't even finished it yet and you already replied. That's dope.
