    Wheel Fitment Thread

    Alright fellas, I've read through about 20 pages of this thread but I'm not seeing what I'm looking for. I want to run a 17" wheel with a 245/40-17 or 235/45-17 M+S tire for next winter. What width wheel fits these tires the best (no stretching or ballooning), and what offset would put the...

    Projekt G23[Rebooted] | [Ended] Euro r H22A

    Re: Projekt G23 Compression will drop to 11.3 with the larger combustion chambers of the H22 head. My tuner has a 13:1 compression D-series that he runs on 87 octane with no problems. It's all in the tune.

    Kteller Piping?

    KTeller is great, but if you're going for just the piping, I'd order from Columbia River Mandrel. It's a very simple setup. Two 90* bends, two 45* bends and 8 feet of straight will get you from the downpipe to the tip. That's less than $100 in pipe if I remember right, and you don't even need...

    Battery Relocation

    The top plate looks billet to me, unless it's just chromed plastic. Even though it looks like it was made for that red top, I wouldn't want my terminals that close to it.

    aftermarket FPR

    Aftermarket FPR's are more trouble than they're worth. I'd sell/return the Synapse and get an OE FPR with a big outlet. That should fit your budget. :beer2:

    about to throw my EMS standalone in the trash-rant

    Sounds like you have other wiring gremlins if the EMS is doing all that.

    Battery Relocation

    I like it, except I'd use heavier wire all around. 0 gauge at a minimum for the main power and ground, and at least 4 gauge to both the starter and OE fuse box. And that top plate over the battery scares me. What is your battery holder secured to?

    cleansleeper's Turbo G23 build

    Here's my take... In my mind, reliability and longevity are two separate entities, that at some point cross paths. Reliability - comes from quality parts and attention to detail. This is what prevents your car from randomly breaking down due to gee-wiz mistakes or parts that are...

    N/A to FI: AFAccord's 10:1 Comp Turbo F23 Build Thread/Restoration

    Thanks! I can't recommend the H series for just a stock swap, but if you're going to really build the H for all-motor and tune it, its a great platform with lots of aftermarket support. From my experiences with building the F23, its not a great platform for all motor unless you go high...

    Um... Tall gears... Autobahn... Yes, please? Lol I'm moving to Germany next year. :hide: Yup... Good to hear. This is just what I was looking for, but gosh darn it that's fugly!

    In preparation for taking the car to Germany, I've got to start shopping for a few specialty items. 1. I'd like to find a rear bumper that fits the european plates, but the Euro (and maybe Japanese for all I know) 6th gen Accord are a completely different body style, so I don't think I'll...

    Custom Intake Manifold for Turbo F23

    I believe so. I haven't seen anyone maxing out the F23's intake manifold or throttle body yet, so it's still just a guess. I just wanted to prove a point that the F23 can handle a lot more power under boost in stock form than most people think. Everyone wants custom this and custom that. I...

    The new redline is set at 7000rpm (reads as 7200rpm on the tach) since it still made power up to that area, and I have the valve train to support it. The pull videos really don't do it justice since I didn't have the high boost switch connected yet. Plus, with the tall gears it seems as if the...

    Custom Intake Manifold for Turbo F23

    Biggest issue is the inability for the motor to expel exhaust gases fast enough. A good turbo manifold and larger turbine are great places to start. Higher compression, larger intake valves, head porting and cam would be great after that. I think the biggest myth is that people need a huge...

    Custom Intake Manifold for Turbo F23

    Beat me to it... I used the stock F23 IM in my build with the only modification being port-matched to the TB. Long story short, I think there are other areas for improvement before getting into custom/modified intake manifolds and throttle bodies.

    resonator

    The best one I've ever used is the Vibrant Ultra-quiet resonator. It's a straight thru design, and uses stainless filling, so it won't eventually burn out like a glass pack or the other 90% of 'resonators' out there. I've done back to back comparisons installing and removing it, and it truly...

    Yeah, I was going to buy some new axles from the parts store, but got to reading about Raxles products. Then I remembered that I haven't replaced my axles that I pulled from the car, and figured they're probably OEM, so I just stuck with those. When I do break one, Ill be ordering a set from...

    In first there is none. Second gear is just a tiny but squirrelly on wastegate pressure (5psi) but still useable. On low boost and high boost I'm utilizing boost by gear. 5, 11, 16, 19, 19 for low boost which burns through second and skips just a tad in third, and 10, 16, 19, 21, 21 for high...
