you're gonna wanna 5 speed swap before you go turbo man. the extra power will rip your auto apart.

Double your cash flow, buy Nikita's (RussianRed, aka one of the best sellers on this site) turbo kit, do 5spd swap.

Or buy another f23 head and manifold.. Have them port and polished and build the head. Go for a retune with on chipped p28 ecu; you'll have to convert to obd1. And you still need to do the 5spd. That auto tranny is limiting you so much.

Thanks for the vouch Quinn!

The kit is pending sale currently, however I do have extra turbo parts available too aside from that.

I have a completely bone stock automatic 2002 Accord LX it is the 2.3L. Ever since My buddy got his car turbocharged i have been wanting to do the same to mine.
Obviously y'all have been saying do the manual swap, And don't want to but i might change my mind if persuaded enough. But i honestly have no clue where to start nor where to look for the kits. I've heard FMAX and Turbonetics but don't know which to pick.

i believe FMAX has been discontinued... not sure abt turbonetics tho... it'll be easier to piece out your own kit... just search the forum for info regarding this topic
