Recommended Posts

Hi. This is me first post. I just bought a 2002 Honda Accord EX V6 V-tech 2 Door. I was thinking aboot putting a turbo on it but I know nothing aboot turbo kits for this car. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

..Aboot. -Snicker.-

 

One. It's V-tec.

 

Two. Boost is good, boost is great.

 

Three. Tuning is greater, even greater than boost.

 

Four. I'm really stretching this..

 

Five. ..Uh, yea. Take what we here say as a grain of salt.

little more complicated in a v6. you have 2 choices , you can either twin turbo with like 2 T25's , than youl need a manifold for each turbo , one on each side. or if you wanna go with a single larger turbo , youl need a custom manifold. cause your exhaust will have to all come into one pipe before it its the turbo. its not easy like your thinking , you wanna turbo a car , you bought the wrong one , lol.

I'm not sure about the 02 V6's but I almost bought my dad's 97 V6 a while back and was researching all the crap aboot slapping a turbo on it, and it is much easier to twin-turbo it, like cranny said, but I will also have to second the end of his post... If you wanted to turbo, you bought the wrong car.. I instead bought a 95 EX 5-Speed and was planning on turboing the F22 but my tranny went to crap and I ended up selling it.. Go N/A with the V6..

NA V-6's can be insane. plus theres no sound like the V6 VTEC engines when there breathing hard. you guys ever hear an NSX winding out? man they sound incredible.

Ok so if a turbo is not the right way to go... what should I do to get some more torque out of it.

I bought it with some sort of exhaust work done..

It has the cat and a muffler under the car bout midway.. then it splits into two other pipes that each go to seperate glass packs.

I dont know much aboot that setup. It seems it was for sound more than performance.

 

I just recently put a CAI (injin) on it. Sounds real nice when I get on it. I would like to get some more power out of it though.
