Ryan168 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 There isnt even close to the same market for turbos kits for the accord as compared to the civic and prelude, There for none of the cheap ebay turbo companys are producing one for your car, Only thing I could think of.

airjordan223 Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 just because its an SOHC VTEC doesnt mean its the same motor. build your own kit, its cheaper and youll get more power click me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kegger Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 just because its an SOHC VTEC doesnt mean its the same motor. all the accords ive seen have f22a1 (VTEC) or f22b2 (non-VTEC) so they are def not the same motor. but back in the day when i still had my accord i had no problems finding turbos. use google not ebay more results better companies (most of the time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chubs Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 most "Turbos" are universal..Did you mean you cant find a turbo kit.. just get a GT28, 550 injectors, custom charge piping, BOV, 38mm wastegate, custom 3'' downpipe and a turbo manny, not very difficult.

Jeffro Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 Civic and Accord engines are no where near the same... And turbo's on Accords are not as popular because they are heavy, and not really "racing" machines. Your best bet is to build your own, as previously stated...

Jeffro Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 IMO, if you don't know enough about the turbo you want to put on your car to build it, you will have trouble maintaining it. There IS a lot to a good turbo system, and maintenance (especially if you're just slapping something on and hoping it will last) is much more difficult if you don't understand it. Do the research. There's tons of information on this board about building a good turbo. It's not impossible by any means, but it will be a challenge if you have no experience with them. Just food for thought.

You'll have to piece something together. Also, might want to get your computer checked out, I think your caps lock key is broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 all the accords ive seen have f22a1 (VTEC) or f22b2 (non-VTEC) so they are def not the same motor. but back in the day when i still had my accord i had no problems finding turbos. use google not ebay more results better companies (most of the time) f22a1 is from the 92-93 model Accords. VTEC was not produced yet. it was f22b1 in the 94-97 accord EXs there are turbos everywhere for accords. i had one but sold it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
