Next Project?!

Ok, so when I was shopping for cars, I test drive a Passat (which had a turbo). I was so thrilled by the turbo that now I'm seriously considering adding a turbo to my car.

Soo...what would be the benefits of adding a turbo? About how much would it be to get one? Could I purchase one and install it myself?

Anything you guys think you should tell me, go ahead.

Thanks a ton, i'm just trying to learn here.

i'd try searching, there's been quite a few threads about it and you could probably find quite a bit out by reading through those threads

retroshark is the dude to talk to.

just search around on accord forums, and if youre asking these questions now, i would suggest you do alot of research. cuz a turbo isnt something you can just slap on like an intake. you need engine management and tuning and stuff.

Or he could check out B's build thread over at E-H, which has a **** load of information on building your block, and turboing.

Retroshark did a nice write up on what you need for a turbo here. I'd start there with researching because you can at least look at the basics and go from there.
