    Smaller tires will effectively give you a shorter final drive ratio, though it'll knock your odometer and speedometer off by a couple of percent.

    You can try all sorts of bolt-ons for more power.

    Depending on how uppity you've been with it, you *might* consider a new clutch; yours might be slipping.

    But the BIGGEST thing is that you need to acknowledge that Honda Accords, by-and-large, are *not* good drag cars. They are a lot heavier than a Civic, but not much more powerful.

    Dude, it's a Honda. Get a Chevy Big Block. Not much on gas mileage, but great off the line. =D
