no. I did check on this and a guy at the dealership here did not know of any changes to the engine in the accord from the previous models and we still get the same 190hp as the earlier models did!
sadly

it´s feeling a little better now after I´ve driven it a few times, it probably did free up a few ponies
can´t wait to find what the intake will do with this

I'm not sure why that cable would be needed.

Just a question,
The header people bought from ebay, Do you guys think this will fit on the 2006 TSX?
I just got my TSX 3 days ago, and looking forward to some headers + CAI.
Try to beat my friends Mazda 6 V6 !!!!
So yea. Simple question Will these headers fit on the 06 TSX?

Yeah it should I guess, ask JTso. Anyway performance wise the DC rip off is as good, and quality is good as long as it doesnt break. Looks doesnt matter since you wont be able to see the header anyway. It seems these guys dont have any issues with the header

yeah sure. I have put down my trust to kwjustin89's review. I'm sure just the price is low doesnt mean that it's bad quality. After all almost all things are made in china nowadays :P
