Hello every body, i'm new to this forum and a noob
well first of all i have a honda accord coupe 2008 2.4
well, i used to own a Mercedes slk230 compressor, so it stopped working cause of the crank shaft got broken , and its so bloody expensive to change, so i said after 12 years of this car running perfectly its time for her to rest in peace , anyways let me get to the point
this car have a compressor Eaton m45 which is not mounted on the head or bolt on, it is mounted on the side , it have a belt that runs on from the engine so my question is can i use this compressor to my car?,cause as i know we cant install a turbo, cause the manifold thingy, and we cant play with the ecu, cause no cracked it yet.
I can work on custom fitting in the garage, so i can fit it in , but do i need to also tune the ecu so it can work? or it doesn't need any of this ? cause if it works i guess to should give the car some serious gains !! cause it starts spinning on 2500 rpm
what inspired me is that, several months ago i did a research about this and ive found out that a guy from Russia also have an Honda accord"TSX" 2.4 compressed, he managed to pump out 304hp, ive tried emailing him couple of times, but no use

all what ive found out he tuned his car Unichip but everything else was custom made
can you guys please guide me and help me if it is possible
thanks alot

 

Hondata is who you probably want to talk to about the ecu. And yes, people have turboed these motors as well. But ya have to get the tuning figured out first, after that, you'll be home free.

 

there is NOTHING that money can not solve:
