Check out EliteCM.net.....


It's a 7th gen site with some guys who know their sh*t.

Timot_one knows his sh*t, he actually has a TSX motor swap & comptech SC, so he'll definitely be a source of knowledge for you.

Good luck!

What kind of supercharger is it JR or CTE? Do they infact make an adapter plate for the SC? I know CTE's SC's are all platform specific. Did you look into this before you traded your bike for it?

Good luck with the build man, but I also would have gone with the Legacy even if it cost me a little more. When all is said and done, you're going to drop the same money.

Beautiful car, I dont know why people are dissing on the auto. Automatics are great, some are even better than manuals.

Ehhhh....some of the new autos (dual clutch manuals) are nice, but 90% of modern automatics are slushboxes, and Hondas auto trans reputation leaves something to be desired......

lol trust me, i would have gone with the legacy but its just easier NOT to finance... and everywhere was askin for above $10-15k for ones with more than 50k miles....

and as for the auto... i really wanted a 5speed but for the deal that i got, i honestly dont care... plus when im back in brooklyn for good, it wont be as annoying driving. i do wish i got a 5 speed tho. i love manual tranny cars... maybe this time i will do the 5/6 speed swap like i planed with my 6th gen.

and as for the SC... i didnt trade it yet because i still have yet to pick up the car, i pick it up this saturday. and the guy i am in talks with is in no rush because its still on the car and he is just parting it out slowly but still driving the car. i am still doing my research right now cuz i actually want this car do be done right the first time instead of trial and error with my 6th gen...

also it saddens me that i dont see many 7th gens with too much poke in their wheels... well at least 7th gen sedans... everyone is tuckin tires... i want just as much poke as i had on my 6th gen

I have to agree. And if I'm buying a car with a 4 cylinder, I gotta have some sort of fun factor since there's little power to start with. And Accords keep getting bigger...

But hey there's a market for it obviously.

If you're swapping a manual, go with the 5 speed, the 6 speed tranny out of the TSX/RSX is gear insanely short, the only redeeming factor would be the limited slip diff and that is easily swapped into the 5 speed.
