What is the most horsepower that i can get out of my accord a20a3 engine with header, intake, msd, trottlebody change, and msd ignition. which larger accord trottle body would be able to fit my 3rd gen

 

not sure...wanna say about 3000 whp

 

10

 

would a chip of any sort help me out on horsepower. I finally have some money and I am trying to make my car faster without changing the engine.

 

no. chip wouldnt do anything. Turbo It.

 

Sell it and buy and buy a faster car.

 

I would buy a faster car, but the new accords look too heavy and i usually beat stock civics easilly.

 

ask jballut oO?, he has the crankinest 3rd gen around turbocharged A20 motor, but i think he is in the high 200's?

 

I thought it was 300 hp... well close enough...

There is the build it yourself programable fuel management system you can get.
From the looks of the PC interface, you have many variables you can change to tune the chip for added performance.

 

And JBallou is actually active this week for the first time in months!

 

Yes I know I am active, it is a hit and miss kind of deal..

With the new mods that I am doing, I am hoping to get 400whp out of this motor. When everything is said and done, I will have the car dynoed and run it at the track so I can get into the number game...

 

is that with the stock motor? if so, how many miles do you have jballou? do you have any tips for turboing a honda motor(f22b1) with stock internals? what precautions should one take?


thanks

 

Holy fuggin ****!!! If you get anywhere near 400 whp, you will get more props from me than even maybe 2point6!!!

How about a detailed list of mods and future plans? Please, please, please

Dude, if you dont come around and participate more often in our conversations, I will be forced to feed you a PP&J sammich!!

Anyway, how much boost are you currently running and planning to run?

 

Before I tore everything apart for a re-fresh, I was running anywhere from 18-22psi, basically maxing out the turbo (I think, I will find out if I am or not when I dyno the car.)

 

Does that mean you will need a bigger turbo for 400hp?

 

It might, I will find out when I dyno the car.
