It would be pointless for a car with less than 300hp...

it does look dope though.

ive seen a few accords on H-T.com with them. i believe NRG make one. and Ignalls make one for ludes, but im sure they would fit.

They do look slick on a done up engine, they look stupid by themselves, but I don't think they do much, you're better off replacing motor mounts rather than putting some $20 dampener on your engine

The accord v6 one will work with some modification, but again I don't really see the point
