Re: My Turbo V6 Accord

I really hate people who call BS espeacially when they're wrong. This is my Turbo V6 Accord, I just got it finished this past week and I'm waiting to get my hands on another camera to take my finished pictures.

Good news is shes running and broken in and running like on helluva honda. I have a dyno date on Saturday, I cant wait to see numbers on what shes puttin out.

People diss on this tranny and i agree it sucks. But for a turbocharged motor i would rather have an automatic transimission all day. The absence of turbo lag and the ability to break boost and launch at 10psi vs. 1-2psi. can be the difference between winning and losing. My goal is to have a local shop build the transmission for me starting with a 4grand torque converter.

Chiefy: I want an intercooler like yours, bad. I've looked all over the web and i have no luck finding them. The only company that I've seen with IC's like those are the XS ones. Who makes yours and any idea who carries them online.

Also just so you know Rotora is a break caliper company that not as rediculously expensive as Brembo but still offer a pretty sweet 4 piston rear caliper for only about 400-450 bucks brand new. Also JDM is a cheap American company that models itself after a good expensive Japanese company, and that is who makes my wastegate.

Hopefully I'll be posting some good looking pictures anyday now thanks for all the supportive comments and screw you guys who call BS

Re: My Turbo V6 Accord

here's where most people are gonna bash ya: your pipes are being held up by zip ties..... that's just cheap. it looks like you've used pipe connectors in place of welding, keeps up with the cheap theme. if you get into a front end crash over 2mph you're pipes or intercooler is ****ed. if your boost spikes then you're probably gonna blow something off the assembly. if your actually honest in your belief that the AUTOTRAGIC tranny is > than a manual transmission you're in need of some counseling (you can brake boost manual transmissions with less stress on the transmission, god only knows how bad its going to be when you start stressing the auto transmission). the fact that you'd rather have a shop rebuild your auto tranny versus swapping the manual tranny show's the fact that you have more money than sense. oh and enjoy your turbo lag with all that extra piping.

all in all it looks like a hack job done with cheap parts to make your car faster with no regard for how long its going to last before something blows.

one more question, do you have a full mod list? because lots of us really want to see everything you've put on your car so we can stop calling it BS and start trying to understand what/why/how you're building this car
