is it just me or has finding a turbo kit for an F22a become impossible, i have searched the greddy website and a few other brand names, they make them for the 5th gens but not the 4th, i even checked turbo-kits.com and they have discontinued some of there turbo kits for the accord, luckily its e-z to make a homemade turbo these days, with parts being interchangeable, but i dream the day where you can find forged pisonts, rods, and cranks just as easily as a civic or a damn integra, but somebody give me an link and prove me wrong, to just a front mount intercooler for a f22a accord or something

 

intercoolers are universal. Its cheaper to build your own kit too. 4th gens can use the manifold and turbo off some DSMs which can really cut down the price. other than that you can have one made. i have one in my garage too if you are interested...

 

i know i what u mean, i have a 16g turbo off of an eclispe too, it was free, thats whats awesome too, rich kids with eclispes and upgrading their turbos, and not givin **** about the stock ones lol,yeah i know, i do wish tho their was more of an aftermarket variety for our 4th gens

 

i actually have a 94 but my brother and i are working with his 93 wagon.. luckily we found a dsm kit though.

 

give me some time im working on makinf 4th gen manis, but http://www.treadstone.com has a kit for the forth gen, i personally made my own kit makes way more power for a lot less money

 

i think he means http://www.treadstoneperformance.com.. i thought i checked there for the 4th gen... oh well

*edit* you can also get the manifold and possibly entire kit from a prelude si (h23 non vtec) turbo kit

I have a few sites you might want to check out for your 4th gen accord, one is raceeng.com and the other is importperformanceparts.net. You should be able to find alot of parts there.

ya, what he said! its cheaper to build your own too

 

Whats up guys, just joined this site... Its good to see other honda accord owners trying to give their engines a little boost. Unfortunately, finding aftermarket for honda accords is difficult and many companies that sell "bolt-on" turbo kits are anything but bolt-ons. I have an f23a5 accord. I just put in a turbo kit (Garrett T25 ball bearing) from TSI turbos... I'll be posting pics soon. Accord turbo kits recommend you run at 6-7 psi and they say you should have around 220-230 hp at the wheels, which isn't bad at all in my opinion. But all the turbo kits available are not "bolt-ons" like they promise. You have to do a lot of fabricating to make it fit and the ECU hacks they give you (to trick your stock ECU) may not be for your specific model. I just installed mine and there are still a lot of details i need to work out:
1) Minor leaks of antifreeze and oil from turbo lines
2) Needs to be dynoed and tuned because its running way too rich

My suggestion is look at what comes with these turbo kits and try buying stuff seperately to make your own kit. Look up TSI turbos on the internet, they make kits for accord also. But definitely get an AEM UEGO to check your air/fuel ratio.. Also, go with a smaller turbo (Like a ball-bearing T25 which is virtually lag free and really responsive). Dont go over 8 psi on stock internals (and there is no way you can get forged pistons unless you custom order them..

I know i threw out a lot of info.. just trying to give you some ideas. If you really want to do it, all you need is some patience. Its not like building up an sr20 or rb25 (which have a ton of aftermarket). Its priceless to see the surprised look on other driver's faces when they hear my blow off valve... Who would ever expect to see a turbocharged accord anyway????? Its an awesome project to do.. just needs some patience

Good luck,
Dimitri
