ok, The Accord motor mount had to go, so i installed a prelude front motor mount, i believe it to be the only 4th gen Accord with a prelude front motor mount. heh. Test fitted the manifold., and well, heres the pics...
























hope ya guys like my pics!

To give some info, this is in a '90 Accord with a H22a (obviously)....looking for ~250whp...thats a tinker219 manifold, and he's a badass!

 

crazy looking internal wastegate.....I like it

 

that front motor mount is a real bitch on those H22's. You get rid of that you have so much more room

 

Looking good, man!

Looks like you have a lot of room on the power steering side of the manifold. Is there enough room to flip the turbo around and put the compressor over there? That usually makes downpipe fab easier.

What kind of turbo is that? Where did you get it? What's it power potential? I like the waste gate setup.

 

Looks good Joe. Im surprised it worked ok. I see now why H/F engines suck
I wish somebody would drive up here to let me get buzy on a tubular manifold for them and their H/F engine...itd be cost of materials
But ya, I was very worried about fitment. Im glad it goes in. Almost looks like it was made for the car
oh ya, get some paint on that mani would ya?

 

Yeah, I'm not looking forward to dealing with that motor mount on my 95lx. South Florida Performance said I'd have to notch the mount with their manifold, but I'm going to be running a drag gen IV that I picked up for a good deal. I know the drag mani places the snail up high so I'm wondering if it will still be in the way :/ I've been told not to run w/o the mount though. If worst comes to worst, I'll fab my own.

 

Where are you located Tinker??

Thats the way i wanted to set it up, but my friend who'se building the downpipe and intercooler piping was not down with that idea for the fact the started and battery are right there, and heating those up that much with exhuast didn't seem too appealing to him. So we'll mount it this way, and see how it goes.


The turbo is a Garret straight T3 .60ex and .63 compressor. I'm not looking for huge power, but quick spool and a smooth power band. Though, i think i may buy a T4 compressor setup from Paul Vang.

Tinker219, You can feel free to fly out here and build me a manifold, i have a tig and a chop saw thats all you!
