how about selling it and buy a NSX... bwahaha..
i wouldn't want to mess with a brand new car, and i have no idea about
what under the hood of a 2008 Accord

if you want some fun just take off the pipe connecting the airbox
resonator and the air cleaner housing. That'll increase the air flow
but then the engine will be drawing warm air from the engine
compartment, so the net effects on performance could be zero. The ECU
might set the "Check Engine" light if oxygen/fuel mixture ratio gets
out of hands, but it's not likely. In this case, resetting the ECU is
necessary for it to learn the new air intake settings and adjust the
injections accordingly.

Doing so gives the engine a loud exhaust note when it's under load.
It's fun and it's better than doing short ram intake. Most of all,
it's reversible. Put the pipe back in if you don't like what you see,
and don't forget to reset the ECU if it's bitching.

But seriously, i can only suggest using synthetic oil..

cheers
