Finally, my accord is boosted.
Finally got kit this week and put it on this weekend. Only running low boost till I can get it to a dyno with a wideband, but it still runs good.

Re: Finally, my accord is boosted. (Accord94DX)
I am running the newly released Drag Gen 4 with a t3/t4e 50 trim, stage II wheel and .63 A/R. No pics yet, but hopefully soon. Fitment is very tight, especially with the bigger compressor housing on the turbo. Only problem was the downpipe. As I said before, fitment was very tight.

Re: Finally, my accord is boosted. (EvoAccord)
What year accord? I have a 99 2 door running 5psi with the drag 4 turbo kit...I was one of the first ones to get the new Drag 4 kit. I love it, and like you said the fitmit is tight...I had problems with the downpipe also. But the quickest I have ran with it is 11.763 on the 1000 foot....I do recommend getting a performance clutch. The first two weekends running at the track was fine. Then the clutch wouldn't grab. But anyways good luck with your new turbo accord and happy boosting.

He already has an upgraded clutch, and his Accord is a '97.
Here is a pic of his car
only thing missing in that pic is the FMIC and the JDM headlights

Re: Finally, my accord is boosted. (NXAccordTO4B)
First, the eyelids are gone and replaced with JDM headlights. Second, I got my kit from Ben at Importparts.com. He posts alot in the forced induction forum and is a pretty nice guy. Third, there is a little lag since I recieved a turbo that is a step up from the standard turbo size for the accord. It doesnt hit full boost till 2800-3000 rpm. However, it is pretty strong in the higher rpms. I will try to post pics as soon as I can get my friends digital camera.

Re: Finally, my accord is boosted. (2000Accord5sp)
Well I have never ran a 1/4 mile first off. So I am curious myself. And to reply from the other post I paid right at 3300 shipped from Ben at importparts.com and yes he is a really nice fellow. There is another guy from Polk Performance that post on here as Damonboost in the force induction forum just like Ben from importparts. Damon and they guys there at the shop but the turbo in for me. That was great of them and Ben cuz Ben called Damon ahead of time and told him to cut me a deal on the install. I do have a bit turbo drag but I think that is because of my stock exhaust 
> to myself. But that is getting taken care of pretty soon. EveAccord welcome to the great world of being boosted. And when I can get my hands on my friends digital i will post pics. I am trying to get these videos hosted somewhere so I can post a couple of my runs at the local track. To bad it doesn't have the 11.763 run on it but oh well. I still am proud of my stock looking accord that beats the living crap out of 5.0 mustangs, 3000gt's, 300zx, and those new 6spd nissan altimas. <those are at stock-milldly modded...and I beat some 3-7 car lenths. Go Honda's....

Re: Finally, my accord is boosted. (Jaguar)
Not that this is a great comparison..but I ran a best of 14.552 (in sig) 1/4mile, and my 1000ft was 12.222. The guy I raced ran a 13.8XX and his 1000ft was 11.5XX so you can TRY to compare off that...but who knows for sure.

Re: Finally, my accord is boosted. (accordfreak)
My downpipe doesnt hang low, but the charge pipe from the turbo didnt line up worth a damn. So, I had to cut it to make it fit. Also, the chrome job on the pipes dont look near as good as yours. The only pipe that looks really slick is the charge pipe going to the throttle body. The rest of the pipes have a real dull look.
