    What else can be done here...MPG gone to dogs :(

    Woa, woa woa...theres a few more things it could be. Seafoam cleans things somewhat. However, have you had the intake manifold off ever? Theres still a chance its pretty chunky with EGR carbon buildup with the miles you have on it. That buildup is enough to rob you of efficiency and unless you...

    V6 accord shuts off while driving

    if this is a 98-00 (distributer).. i wouldnt jump to those conclusions just yet. Pull the plugs and check them out, even if not old. usually if somethings wrong with the distributer(one of the cylinder specific nodes) a specific cylinder may not fire. Food for thought :) good luck.

    engine sputtering

    exhaust leak. Revving LOOKS healthy, sounds like the manifold gasket since its that lawnmower type sound

    N/A build or Turbo

    You can find a turbo setup to be cheaper than an all out swap and n/a build. Though an n/a build may give more torque and mpgs...depending on your turbo tune ofcourse lol. Its a horse a piece!!!

    What'd you do to your accord today?

    Replaced the driver control arm cuz the ball joint had more play in it than I have ever seen... also did a brake fluid flush. Kinda surprised that brake responsiveness was noticeably better. :Smoker:

    bisimoto stage 2 cam

    which engine? If the v6 Ive heard it is slightly lopey nothing crazy like old muscle...it should be perfectly driveable with some adapting. Dont expect good mileage id say. I would have my hands on a set if they were within a reasonable price for me

    Re: Skyy's 1999 Accord V6 Sedan (56k) - NEW PICS 11/30- its all just speculation and opinion but i ^+1...like a bronze would be tight. Look at the bronze color that Rota Grids come in. I was thinking of getting some myself because of their sick concavity. Anyways find yourself an old decent...

    right. You should check out v6performance.net, seeing as you specifically have 6 cylinders. Thats where ive spent most of my time talking with 'NVA-AV6' and watching every step of the way of his swaps and builds

    Clunk Over Bumps

    did you check balljoints? They can bounce up and down too. Might be hard to check with a crowbar. Make sure you cant fit a large flat head between the ball joint and lower control arms mount point...it does sound more like an engine mount though. Even if the engine mounts are all tight...

    Help diagnosing engine noise

    ^ +1. Its chirps when its cold then once it warms it grips the teeth of the pulleys better. If it were the alternator it would be constant ringing/clunking/grinding. Dimming lights when using accessories is normal unless you swapped to the odysseys high output alternator or you have a...

    My idea for headers and downpipe

    You have the right idea. They may not be the bestheaders but having a lower coat, then the wrap, and a silicone top coat will do pretty well no matter the weather...now after winters of salt and $*** you may want to inspect them and make sure theres no exposure of the metal. They are stainless...

    V6 headers seem legit?

    ^ Buying which headers? The first mentioned? It literally is not worth it. They have been proven to yield marginal performance gains over even the midrange Obx and Megan racing headers. Be patient and save for one of those and go SS because ceramic can crack and lead to rust.
