UK Accord

I finally collected my Accord today after all these months without her six in total and am well pleased with the results.

Boost is set at 6psi whilst the new engine gets run in.

The boost comes on early and feels strong up to 3000 ish rpm and then the boost really kicks in and all hell breaks loose

197 bhp at 5191 rpm
218lbft at 4100 rpm

Stock Figures

148 bhp at 5600 rpm
148lbft at 4600 rpm

The engine rebuild and turbo conversion was carried out by Hedley @ Millways so a big thanks to you.

Most of the other work has been done by Richey at Performance Autoworks so a big thank you to you too.

This has been a massive project and the time and money spent has also been massive ops: but overall I'm delighted with the results.

Nice car and congrats on the setup. Cant wait to see what it does on high boost with some race gas!
Any pics of the rear of the car?

Looks good.

What are your hp goals?

UK Accord

HP Goals are around 230 - 240 at around 9si which I think are the limits to the fuel management and injectors!

I wanted to build a quick but reliable everyday car that I can use for trackdays.

Not really interested in 1/4 mile times.

Heres some more pics:

Man if our 5th gens over here would have looked like that sales would have gone through the roof!

Great looking car!!!

Nice buildup and numbers for 6 psi... you should have no problem reaching your goal.

Have you considered other management options or is that all that you have readily available for tuners to work with there?

UK Accord

We have the same engine management systems as you guys do. Most popular for Hondas being either Hondata, Crome, Neptune, Motec, Autronics, AEM.

The problem being for the last three is the price. Your looking at $3000 installed and mapped

The problem with Hondata , Crome or Neptune is no one has ever used these systems on a EDM Accord.

So i'm kinda stuck with what i'm using for the forseeable.

Cars looking good justin

Richy does work with other systems apart from autronics so might be worth giving him a call

UK Accord

Loving that avatar Adam he he

What other systems does he tune with?

eg9 adz

I have heard him speak of hondata, power fc and can't remember the rest tbh, have a chat with him and see what he can tune for you

If you get hondata from the across the pond it works out stupidly cheap with the £ being quite strong especially compared to uk prices

You will have to turn up to a meet so I can have a pass ride

I may have to change the avvi tbh but I mostly read over here so cba
