Ok, Ive been doing alot of research on this and Im finding mixed results. Ive found a discussion in this forum where someone had them on a 3.0 and said they used the 98-2000 accord pulleys. But on the unorthodox racing website they show the pulleys being the same on the 2001 cl non-type s, the stock # is different for the accords. What the hell is going on?

Keep in mind unorthodox pulleys aren't AEM pulleys what works for one company may not work for the other. Unorthodox pulleys may be the same size for both the 3.0 and 3.2.
My best advice to you is to look up your engine code. I think its a j30 and look up the engine for the accord v6 if its a j30 model you can use the pulleys from the accord with the same engine. For example my mother owns a 2001 accord 4cyl I own a 1998 2.3 Cl they both use a F23 powerplant. While the engine compartment layouts differ by all of 2% the engine is mostly identical so i can use parts for her engine without worry.

I was going to order that whole setup, but it was $359. If I decide I want the additional pulleys later I will just order them seperatly.

I too am looking into finally starting some performance mods on my CL. I'm looking into AEM Pulleys; CAI w/Bypass; and 2.5" Piping with some universal muffler. What do you guys think? Would it make a noticible difference???
The Pulleys; are they hard to install? who ever has done it; would it be expensive to install? Because I'd probably get the same shop to do the intake and pullies all at the same time. If they are both easy to do; i might just get together with my step dad one weekend and do it all. The Exhaust I know i'll have to get done because we dont have the welding capabiltiy. Anyone have any ideas on a nice universal muffler? I want something that looks good; preferably a black muffler and chrome dual tips. Dont want anything loud either. Not loud at all. Just to be able to hear it rumble at idle or low RPM; but nothing that will wake up the neighborhood at all; I guess I'll have to leave on the respnator to keep it quiet. :-) Help me guys; i know NOTHING about performance parts :-)

I installed the pullies myself. Had to use an impact on the alternator pulley to get it off. Didnt have one at the time so I took the alt to a local shop and they took it off for nothing. Other than that easy install.
Yes noticeable difference.
The intake was a bit harder for me. Kept breaking the plastic holders for the wheel lining. I ended up taking the bumper off the car and doing it that way.
Difference is more noticeable than the pullies.
I love my exhaust. Its not loud at all. The bosal/brospeed cat back has the dual tips. Its a catback system and not a muffler. I paid midas $50 and they had to add a hanger to the system.

resonator to intake
you said you are getting an intake put on. it is not hard at all you can definitely do it yourself.i did mine. it will be louder, but not like a weed-eater. instead it will sound like a throaty V-6. and you said that you wanted to leave the resonator in. sorry to tell you this but you will be taking it out. it is a real bitch. you can't even see the whole resonator until you take off the plastic molding in the fenderwell. it is mostly tabs and you can use a flathead to pop them loose unless your car is like mine and somebody actually hammered the tabs so they have to be broken. if you do put the intake on yourself and you have any other questions i can answer them.
