First of all, I would like to thank Anthony at AV Engineering for all of his hard work on this one of a kind set-up! The car is a 6th gen Accord that was fully loaded from the factory so I wanted to keep everything as close to being a daily driver as possible. Anthony designed a custom top-mount AC/PS compatible manifold for the H series based on my set-up. The fitment is pretty tight but everything worked out better than I could have ever expected.



The car is a real monster on the street despite the heavy chassis. Traction isn't as bad as I would have expected since Anthony set-up the boost controller by gear/rpm through the sManager.



On 7.5psi the car made 283whp/230tq and 446whp/343tq on 17psi. The 446whp pull actually hit boost cut about 600rpm's early. Judging on other pulls Anthony said it probably would have made 460ish whp around 7600rpm. Either way, my original goal was 400whp so I'm more than satisfied and happy!







Here are the specs on the set-up:

That is awesome man . When is Anthony going to start selling those topmounts to us "real" luders lol?

strukaccord

i'm sure he can set something up

Cool. I hope you dont mind me posting this in the forced induction section on Preludepower.com. We have been waiting to see the results of this manifold.

strukaccord

not at all just send me the link - i'd like to see what everybody thinks

You mean like this?



Fitment in the Prelude chassis is insane to keep AC. The downpipe runs down the side around the trans and to the exhaust. It is not a side-mount exhaust. If you guys think this is an innefficient design, then let the dyno charts speak for themselves:

AV Top-Mount vs. Brand X Ram-Horn


AV Top-Mount vs. Treadstone



AV vs. Drag

What about fitting this topmount in 5th gen Accord with AC and PS?

If you send us measurements from the head to the radiator core support we'll let you know. I would probably use the Prelude manifold for your chassis though.
