Default The Ultimate Sleeper?

My friend bought the new 2.4 i-VTEC Accord, and had a race with his friend's V6 Accord. He was spanked badly. He wasn't happy. So he decided to turbocharge it. The car is 1 month old.

Sorry, but I wasn't allowed to take pics of the engine bay, hope you guys understand. Its basically just a K24A engine with a medium-sized turbo on an auto tranny

Stock on the outside - this, to me, is the ultimate sleeper

click here for the latest pics!

Just curious, do the new accords in the US look like this, or do they look like the Accord Euro-R?

The US 4cyl exhaust looks the same, but different badging and only has a single muffler. What kind of fuel management are you using? My dad has the same engine and I am trying to figure out what fuel system to use, since not too many people have boosted K-series, let alone the k24! I was thinking an additional injector controller, since I like to do my own tuning.

The car originally had only a single muffler, but the owner didn't want the car to look "different" so he used a stock-looking twin muffler design to help with the larger exhaust piping. It confuses a lot of people when they see 2 mufflers, yet see a 2.4 badge on the back It confuses them even more when they hear the BOV

This car is being used as a prototype for a turbo kit, so i'm unable to tell you much. But yes, it is running with some sort of engine management system. And no, its not hondata

Cool, I also had the same idea about the dual exhaust for a pseudo-sleeper look. I basically have my fuel system finalized, but I'm just wondering if the stock pump is sufficient, since it is returnless?! How much boost are you planning on running, and are you using the stock pump with or without a return line? (Damn OBD2.5...so confusing ) In any case, lookin good!

So wait... NV you're telling me that if you turboed a Civic which is a SLOW-*** car, it is still going to be SLOW? So why did you turbo your's?
