like iam7head said, just do a little research.
in all honesty, the scale of explaining a turbo system can go way beyond what we have space (and time) for here.

I recommend the book "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell. One of the best I've read.
Also, go check out other people's setups and notice how they're put together, and ask if they'll let you drive it. First hand experience is .

yea i know i need to do my homework i've been in a few boosted rides no hondas and i think i have a pretty good idea i know the the lower the compression the better or more boost you can run so i guess my first step would be to tuffen up my block beef up the fuel system and pray i don't **** anything up along the way. any ideas on what kinda ignition set up to use?

the most popular is the MSD 6BTM, because it has the ability to retard ignition at certain boost levels.

Combined with a good set of plugs, wires, and a stronger coil.

true, if you know how to weld you can save even more on those IC piping.
Turbo kit is nice but you can get everything you need for less if you know what to get and where to get them.
Corky Bell's Max. Boost is very good, i have one in my bathroom

I don't see how they can make a turbo kit for all 94-00 Accords, being that the exhaust manifold patterns are different on the EX than the LX/DX. But whatever. I bet you a million bucks if you get that kit it won't fit without modifications. Unless they ask you what kind of car you have and include a special manifold just for your year/trim.

F-MAX is a good kit, but I couldn't justify paying more than 2000 dollars for ANY mod. Just my personal limit.
