Hey guys, well my car is almost done (my baby!) When I get it done, I'll post pictures.
Anyways, Im also looking to get a turbo for my accord but wanted to get some feedback on it. I don't have the v6 (sniff, sniff) just the v4, but I do have intake and the factory dual exhaust that a v6 would have.
What kind of turbo do you think would be good for this application. I'd like to give it a little juice. My friend has 23lbs of turbo, but forgot to ask what kind he put in. Any suggestions would be great.
AND YES, I AM A NEWB TO ALL THIS ENGINE TALK, SO IF I SOUND STUPID, IT'S CUZ I AM!! :)
Thanks guys!

There is no turbo for 7Th Gen Accords yet, if you want one it will have to be custom made, and thats a lot of $$

you might wanna get that v4 checked out, you have the wrong engine in there, i think the first thing you should do is learn about your car, there nothing more aggravating to see a boosted car and the owner has no clue what under the hood.

yeah well im learning and fast, right now i have a injen intake and the v6 factory dual exhaust installed. I also have the TEIN basic coil overs on, but I hate them, way too loud and the ride is way too stiff....
here is the car right, I added black projector headlights and a 12000k HID kit...it looks sweet....

yes i was at the O.C. show and won...thats the 2 trophies for the 2 years in a row being champ :)
like i said, its only getting better. I am looking into replacing my LOUD and STIFFFFFFF tein basic coil overs with the SS or the SS-P any suggestions to which I should get. What does the pillow ball mount do for me? someone said it is for the camber, but mind explaining what that is if you know?
well I dont know where to upload pics of the newest edition of the car, it looks even sicker with the black housings of my halo projector headlights and the 12000k Hella HID conversion kit.
The car really turns heads, I can assure u of that :)

well I was trying to get a quicker car, like a v6 accord or something....plus just about everything i can do to this car is done :( want a new project
I'm into making a car look good, and maybe a few modifications to the engine, I'm not a horse power junkie but I'd like to get the v6 for a lil more power and I like the leather seats...
ah well..i figured I'd hold on to this and drive it into the ground...its a nice car even if its a 4 cylinder.
