For racing, neither one but to answer the question: The Civic Si.There is very little room to increase the Si 197hp factory K20 engine without upgrading the internals and other stuff. The thing I don't like about this engine is the 139 lb-ft of torque. Other models such as the Mazdaspeed 3, WRX & Evo have a lot more HP and double the torque because they have factory turbos. The 2009 Accord V6 is one of those engines with cylinder deactivation. Honda made it to run on 3 cylinders OR 4 cylinders when cruising. Probably not a good idea to mod this engine.

if you want to race and can afford the V6 accord at the same time, i suggest you just buy the first or second models of the S2000 instead. stock engine is already 240hp, with a turbo it might just leave the ground if wings are to be added to it.

anybody knows the accord is faster but the si, its more easy to buy parts for. My choice is the SI. you dont see alot about v6 accord in magazine but you do see SI because they have more parts to buy and they are better for tuning. Text me back to let me know!!!!
