Hello everyone im a nissan guy and new to hondas...i need a new car so i was thinking an accord...idk what it is but i have always liked the way they looked, I was wondering what would be the best year/motor to get so I can eventually put a turbo on it. I was thinking a 97 with a f22 cause its low compression ideal for boosting...Tell me what you all think also no matter what I do the motor thats getting boosted won't be the one in the car, my friend works at a motor shop and he is gonna help me rebuild/build a seperate motor and tranny specifically for boost, and then just do a swap. But still any help would be gratefully, hit me up on AIM if you dont' mind thats where I am most the time, my sn is foreverhardcor.

 

most of the sohc 4 F series are pretty low compression.

4 and 5th gen are much lighter than later accord

there's no significant change through out the generation year(unlike mazda and DSM)

 

Right on! I would say 92-93 in good condition (so you can have ABS) and good compression test numbers across all cylinders.

 

Do a search, there is PLENTY of info in this forum about boosting Accords.

 

94-95, obd1. itll save you some trouble.

it's not very useful at track(if u know your brake well enough, plus 10+ year honda ABS accumulator=headache), obd1 is less hassle for cel like someone pointed out.

with turbo, a sohc non-vtec motor would be favorable

 

Ill prob. say 92-95 H23 .. (closed deck, non-vtec) .. :: I think I have that right... ::

 

id say F22. and get one of the F22s transmissions cause they have longer gearing.

 

F22b1 all stock internals, 94 ex accord- all new custom kit by me and researching here...

t 3/04e 57 trim stage 3 wheel, 48/50 a/r

Power everywhere!!!

265ish WHP and 273 TQ at 10 PSI on a conservative tune. Motor runs great.

Boost the F!!

13.89 @103 MPH With spare, subs, and my FAT *** in the car.......

if you like the 94-97 style go with a 94 or 95 to stay with obd1 it will save you alot of time and trouble down the line when you boost it.
