just search next time and all will be alright. in a nutshell, its not worth the trouble of trying to turbo a v6....the output wouldn't be worth it. instead, supercharge the biotch

and welcome

You can turbo one but it is not worth it.

seriously look at the compression ratios...

most of these kits run in the thousands for 30-65 hp gains (from what I could find online)

do what you want but that sounds like a lot of money for not much hp, i/e/h and pulleys could easily give you 30 hp for a fraction of the cost

another problem is forced induction on an already high compression engine shortens the life and CAN cause it to blow...things to think about

oh and add another grand or so for a transmission swap, a honda auto tranny can't handle stock power very well much less forced induction

That is completely false The most you will get is 10-15hp out of those mods, the absolute most....and I have yet to see a turbo/supercharger that gives only 30hp. Don't spread false information, there is enough on this site to go around

Ok and your point is?

You don't have any idea what you are talking about!!! You need to stop posting this worthless bullshit and start learning. Oh and if you are gonna get pissed look at who I am and how long I have been here. I know more than you will probably ever know and You have a long way to go before you start giving advice.

i think that u might as well change it to manual first. if u put a turbo and want to get what u paid for, u should get ur car standard. but thats my opinion. good luck

Just to help you out. Call HKS they had a turbo kit for 98-02 accord v6 coupe but it was never in production. They should still have a parts list availabe. So to answer ur question yes. Also upgrade ur torque converter if you turbo and automatic or do a cl type-s manual tranny swap.

Simple Answer:

Yes you can. The only reason why it has not been done is because its too expensive to get everything working properly.

Id rather opt for a CLS swap with 6spd then to have a problematic turbo v6 auto Accord.
