Alright guys, I could use some help here. I'm planning on putting together a turbo kit later this year for my Accord. The car is my dd, and im planning on only running 6-8 psi in the beginning.The main concern is the trans. Any body have suggestions? I want to avoid a manual swap. Does anyone make after market tq converters and vb upgrades for these trans? I thought maybe swapping the TSX auto since they make more power, no body in the TSX forum could tell me if it would work with the Accords. Any feed back or suggestions would be great!

 

6-8 psi really doesn't mean anything without knowing how big the turbo is. HP is what matters. Beyond all that though generally speaking Honda engine management does not support automatic transmissions, so effectively you've already hit a wall before you even get to worry about how much power the trans will hold.

 

The current plan is to use a Kmod kit made for the Accords, it utilizes a 55mm turbo. As for EM, not worried about that just yet. I've talked with the guys from KTuner and they have software that should be available by the time I get my kit together early next year. They will support the K24a4/8 in Accords, and auto trans will be supported as well.
