with 8.8:1 compression you should be able to enjoy at least 10 pounds of boost from an f-max kit. Dunno where to get it for cheap...there was a groupbuy about 2 months ago....

it should be reliable....however, if you plan to boost 10 pounds or more...you might want to look into getting new rods....that's the weak part of the motor.

As for install costs? I'm guessing it should be less than $1000

interesting.... i was the sales manager at fmax for about a year. i did all the tuning on the original fmax accord kit. it ran good. only 7psi but its good for just over 200hp. expect about a 6 wait before you get your kit though. the install is quoted at 8 hours and they have a dealer program set up across the country so your local dealer can take care of you unless you're in socal, then i can help you out. as far as reliability, its just common sense... if you drive the **** out of your car, the engine isn't going to last very long. use the power when you need it and you'll be ok. also... 9psi max on the stock accord engine
