Re: Pics of my turbo. (00SilverLS)
nice kit. im thinking about buying the fmax for my accord(8.8:1 compression, it should be safe). anyways, are you auto or stick? do u recommend a turbo with an auto? i heard with an auto, u can stay in boost longer.

Re: Pics of my turbo. (Razor)
auto w/longer boost is a myth...the biggest concern for honda engines is heat and detonation...lower compression does help, but don't press your luck!
second, what kind of engine is in your accord.
Third, yes auto is okay, BUT, I would consider a better torque converter. You will have some problems the tranny trying to shift at weird times, but I don't think that can be helped unless you can somehow tap into the tranny computer...

Re: Pics of my turbo. (BLK94RS)
Nice looking. How much did it cost you, if you don't mind me asking. Why did you choose the fmax kit over the others?
to answer your second question, look at the photos again...its all you need to know!

MiraiZ, sorry, its not already ported. Because I bought my EGT gauge from Rich, he sent the bung to F-Max to tap it for me.
The turbo is the T04B S trim stage 2.....i think. with a .48A/R turbine housing.
pretty sure on this.....i'll double check.

SWEEEET !!!!!!!!!!!! Was the manifold slightly ported ? Looks very nice and also noticed that the manifold was cut in between each cylinder.

Re: Pics of my turbo. (00SilverLS)
nice kit! i wonder how much of your front bumper your gonna have to hack off to get that intercooler in there. maybe it's the pictures but it looks a good amount larger then mine. This is coming from a drag gen 3, and i had to take off a good amount from my bumper. but then again, im forgetting i have radius arms to deal with, so maybe you won't have this problem.

Re: Pics of my turbo. (vudoo666)
Yeah....front what I've heard, its actually a really good setup. The people I know who use it have no leaks at all.
Oh, and Miraiz.........I start this Friday night!
