I will tell you this. The 08-10 V6 Accord engine parts will be the same as TSX. Engine compartment is the same. There are not many parts that you will be able to mod on the V6.
There will be no Headers- You have an integrated manifold
TB Spacer-Yes
Intake-Yes- Get an Accord
Exhaust- Don't know
Pullies- Yes

I know the OEM Accord 08-10 V6 Suspension will fit the TSX.
Top Hats for Both Accord and TSX are the same

Just my .02 cents

i'll tell you this much, i won't be putting accord suspension parts on a tsx just because they fit. there's more to upgrading your suspension than just making them fit. as far as i've been around here, no one has once mentioned spring and dampening rates.

everyone here just wants to slam their cars. not my cup of tea..

+1, they "fit", but the spring and dampening rates as rayden said, is not made specifically for our rides

This thread is meant to bring awareness to companies and for us to express our opinion. I do understand your points fellas but if i stayed satisfied with Accord V6 mods no one will make TSX V6 mods for those who are interested in buying TSX V6 parts not accord mods that might fit TSX V6 Honda tunning Mag has been the Vanguard in this movement here's a link let me know what you guys think http://www.hondatuningmagazine.com/t..._v6/index.html

I agree with you Sammy, and look look I didn't mean to stir amuck (lack of better words) on this thread. My apologies. I do agree that some things will just "fit". The only performance part on my car non TSX is the SRI, which is direct bolt on. No modifications were needed. But sometimes making things "fit" is fun in modifications, hence my fog lights. You will not find those with the Acura name on em. But we all have different views on modifying.

Russel, If you find parts on the 2006 Lazy Boy let me know, I have one I would love to put some LED's and new DRL's in.

Sammy, in all seriousness, did you find the summer tires you were looking for a while back? If so what did you decided to go with?

^stir amuck?? where you from the farm boy? haha j/k, makes me want to slip on some wranglers and some cowboy boots and go boot-scootin'-boogy! lol
saucey lay-z-boy just realeased a new spring kit for the 06-08 recliners. it lowers your ride like 3" in back and 2" in front so you can feel like more of a thug when you watch Godfather. also if you put a vtec sticker on the armrest you gain like 5hp

^didn't know vtech stickers gave that much additional. I have to get a sticker now. Ive always been against stickers but I guess I need to get into them now.

Ha, stir amuck. I was wondering who would comment on that. I am from Ga, but far from a "Southern Boy".
