the engine in it will make 500hp once you get enough fuel and air in.

if it's a V6, start by swapping to manual trans. then look at some of the turbo J-series builds across the web.

if it's a 4cyl manual, start by reading about AFAccord's build. he was just shy of 500.

have twice the cash on hand you're expecting this to cost because that will all be gone soon.

From a different perspective, if you have a V6 Accord, sell it and buy a 4-Cylinder Accord with a manual transmission. It will cost you a heck of a lot less than trying to build a V6 car.
