Does anyone have a turbo'd 6th generation Accord? I've only ran into a few.

 

Aight, seriously?? There are that little people with turbo Accords ?? Holy ****. Cool as hell though because i'ma be one of them in some 20 odd days

 

Yo, man. That's gonna be hella tiiite.

 

what kind of turbo are you getting? or are you doin a custom one?

 

i have an FMAX kit on my 98. building the F23 now also

 

I'm most likely buying the DRAG Kit off of Overboost.com. For $3200 you get a turbo kit, plus an HKS turbo timer, an HKS VBC manual boost controller, and an HKS boost gauge.

 

so i was peepin the site, looks like you're getting the stage 1 gen 2 kit??? thats coo man, that stage 4 gen 2 makes me drool all down my chin

 

DRAG will only give you problems. I think you should go with the F-Max since it will fit better and run more reliably. You will end up spending less in the short and long run.

 

how long have you been running that setup and how's it working for you?

 

The only problem is that the F-Max isn't made for my car exactly... It says for a 98+ F23 VTEC... I have an F23A5 non-VTEC from the DX (sucks, doesnt it?)... Does anyone know if the manifolds will be different?? Would a turbo kit for a VTEC F23 fit a non-VTEC??

 

manifold should be the same... but u can check at http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com

 

I am waiting on my turbo for my 6th gen from Ben at importparts.com As soon as I get the turbo kit in I will be running 8psi on stock internals..I can't wait for my turbo to come in...

 

the manifold should be the same

you shouldn't be too worried about having the Non-vtec dx motor. that one has like a 8.8:1 cr instead of 9.5:1 in the VTEC motor. don't waste your money on a thicker head gasket, you already have a very low compression motor. and later on you can do the VTEC head swap if you really want to. it won't be any more difficult to do than a LS/VTEC head swap

 

What motor has a 9.5:1 CR? F22B1s have a 8.8:1 just like the F22B2s... as far as I know, the F22Ax motors had 8.8:1s as well.

 

my 6th gen EX has 9.3:1 cr. I didn't know they had 9.5 also

 

yeah it is 9.3, I had my numbers mixed up

 

Correct, the F22A1, F22A4, and F22A6 all have a 8.8:1 compression ratio.

 

2.3 liters of displacement and a 9.3 cr and only 150hp is pathetic. God damned soccer moms.

 

i agree plus the timer and vbc and boost gauge dont run that much compared to what youll end up paying in the long haul

 

i agree ....... i know it sucks

 

well can they get that much more out of it w/ only one cam?
