you're going to have to build and blueprint a turbo system yourself... go to http://www.f-max.com/installpage.htm to see what parts are needed for a T3/T4 turbo on a F22 motor...

the reasong being is that the stock mounts will instantly break and then everything else breakes, btw a t3/t4 is too small for that motor IMHO

well, Preludes and Accords have much beefier rods than Civics, and hold up to much more power from NOS than B and D series motors... So I would think the same would be true for Accords and turbos... they should be able to hold up to more abuse....

exactly what should be rebuilt for a turbo... after all, there's only so much money you can put into a F22 to make turboing it economically feasible...

Pistons - SRP 8.5:1 compression. Rods - Crower or Eagle.

too low compression i would stay with stck compression forged ones, a nice sized oil cooler you need some off boost power, i would get an apex-i ITC, plus i would use a 60-1 turbo cbb, i dont see the need for boost low in the rpm range. i would also get custom pistons as having the pin moved up closer to the ring lands and a longer rod to lessen side loading as a turbo'd f22b will produce alot of torque and raise the revs to about 7500 b/c this will move the power band up a bit as well but different tuning factors like charge temp, timing, pressure ratios and manifold design loading and port/flow sizing will determine spool times, i am not turbo'd was a longstanding wish, but i hear it has been more of a head ache than my current set-up has been a bit, and im not spraying either, i forsee a re-build for me pretty soon, rods, pistons, valvetrain, waterpump timing belt etc... thanks for the info MIGs glad to hear there are accord fans like you and big james out there pushing the envelope
