Bro stick with 4cyl switching to a v6 will cost more then a v6 accord. If you want power go with a k swap and turbo the thing. But to much fabrication and wiring a j series into a 4 cyl is a nightmare. Or just go h series and turbo it. Doesn't matter to me just this question has been asked before and its not worth it especially since a 5spd i4 can keep up with an auto v6.

:jae:, You say itll cost more to put a v6 in but you suggest a k swap? haha k swap as of right now has never even been done to our cars. The chassis from a 4 cyl and v6 are different, best and only way for swap is h series.

If he plans on doing all of that work he might as well do a k swap rather then deal with our anti aftermarket j30

where
as stated, it would be too expensive. f23's can handle a good amount of boost on stock internals (8-10psi i think). h22's can be turbo'd, but they have high compression so its slightly harder than turboing an f23.

you and your damn k swaps
