haha it was a joke and i agree with what you said lol
arent you pieceing a turbo kit together, how that goin?
i havent researched much on that motor or any of the j series stuff but i bet it way more expensive. and since i have a 4 banger subframe would it be hard to drop a 6 cyl subframe in it. I read somewhere it would be cheaper and easier just to buy a 6th gen that already had the K frame than it would be to swap it out.

i would but there is like 2% support for our car and the K
i would be the pioneer but as a 18 year old college student right now i have in mind smaller goals. Turbo is def not a small goal but compared to a K series turbo, it is. One day ill do it. right now i dont have the money, the downtime, or the know how to do a K series swap. One day though... one day...
lol

if you don't have money downtime or know how than I don't suggest turboing anything other then a stock f23a1.

Wait 260whp for a boosted g23 seems kind of low. If it's in a 6GA it can't be that fast, is it in a civic or something?

It's in a 5th gen accord. Might be wrong on the numbers. I think he's tuned now probably running more boost !
