Ever sense i got my accord, i havent missed a day with out seeing a trubonator advertised on tv or on car websites.

http://www.turbonator.com/inde...nator

I was wondering if it acually works and if anyone here has one and thinks its a good investment.

Also i was looking on the net for some good ways to get some more kick and horsepower in my car and i came across this

http://www.20horsepower.com/

i was wondering if anyone has heard of this device , has it or used it or what, or is it a good investment?

some advice, or some pointing in the right direction, or opinions are welcomed!

just dont wanna go spending money for nothing.

 

The turbonator is an electric fan you hook up to your intake. It won't do anything.

The chip is a resistor you put on your sensors to trick your car into thinking it needs more air. It wont do anything, and could possibly be bad for your car because it would be freaking otu all the time.

 

Cedar Park huh??? You still in HS or have you graduated already??? CPHS Class of 02 here

bump, just need a few more feedback on this stuff

 

Really, honestly, i'm telling the truth. If you go to http://www.homemadeturbo.com (I think that's the address, home made turbo kits), they did a review in which they actually tested it and it didnt do ANYTHING except choke up the air intake.

If you do a search for 'chip', 'ebay chip' '20hp chip' etc. in archives, there's been many answers just like mine....if we could make 20 hp with just a chip, we'd all be doing it....

 

You very good friends with Todd? Known him since we were 7, tried to make it home for the funeral but higher ups said he wasn't immediate family so it's not important.

Im not saying i dont belive you at all, infact its making me not want to get them now. So how do you suggest i get some HP in my car? i have some money, but not like turbo kit money lol, or a whole new engine, manly money for upgrade parts kind of stuff, anyways i have a 4cyl 97 accord se auto.

todd duncan? (sorry if i wasnt suppose to say last names, but i manly only know people from last names) i didnt know him much at all, just from school and stuff, but never really personally, my ssiter i belive knew him her name is lisa graduated 04. I was sorry to hear the news. He seemed like a great guy

 

I ahve a 2000 Accord SE auto, so we're in the same boat.

Honestly, i've had more luck in suspension than speed parts. If you read the basic guide to accords, youd see teh basic parts you can do. I'd first lower the car on adjustable shocks or coilovers, get strut/sway bars, and get some good lightweight wheels.

The only quick things to do with an Accord is intake/header/cat/exhaust. You can go from there, but just suspension makes the car SO much more enjoyable. I have intake and exhaust, and the rest is suspension and it's a different (and much better) car.

probably because the type of people who buy those products are dumbasses and will "think" there car feels faster so they can be satisfied with there money well wasted..and cuz they kno their buyers will never go dyno it to prove it anyways

as you are in the same boat i am, im on the same boat you are with lowering i have done it already and gonna add struts soon enough, and rims come when tax returns come (already picked them out and everything) Do you have a picture of your car or anything? would love to see it thanks

 

Don't waste your time with the TuRbOnAtOr, or the chip.......both are phony power adders......
