Turbo Advice

[cantafordaccord]

dude your going to spend way more money buying that CRAP than you will buying quality parts. youll replace nearly eerything on there and likely your engine too.

sorry to be a downer but reality isnt allways as pretty as it seems

i dont even think chiefly is that familiar with it

glad u know me so well...

how much will the headers cost u? what a few people have done is buy the ebay turbo kit and just use the piping.. then get a garret or turnonetic turbo.. good opitions are gt30r or gt35r... tail westgate... greddy/tail/hks/turbo xs/ARC BOV are good... a good intercooler will cost $$$. get a aeromotive 1:1 fuel pump.. and you stock injectors are only 240cc which u can run max 6psi but very minimal hp gain.. u can get rc440 or acura RDX injectors which are 410cc. as for engine management there is emanage/emanage ulti/ AEM FIC /....turbo timer, walboro fuel pump / oil sandwich adapter and gauges ofcourse... and few other things ... Enjoy! there are a few people on V6P.net who are very experienced with FI but both these sites are very helpful... search and ask my friend

The price of the custom headers and piping will be expensive but im going to have the entire setup done right and with good parts so when i can afford a new turbo (probably Garrett GT35) and IC BOV etc. i can swap them with little more modifications.

Thanks for the fuel advice i was planning on Greddy E-manage Ultimate not sure what type of turbo timer or boost controller yet i also have APXi VAFC Vtec controller, good call on those injectors i had no idea of those 440's and fortunatel this is my first project car so i can afford a little trial and error.

Also thanks for the fuel pump advice i was a little confused on how that works.

Nice to get a couple posts worth reading

So..who else sees this going downhill...fast.

I see a shop totally ripping you a new one on price..they love seeing people like this,that have NO clue about things..just want them because they sound cool or someone else has it..ha
No offense,but I spent MONTHS and MONTHS researching,calling shops left and right.then finally got my kit together and installed..im just NOW going back and doing somethings right.mainly engine managment-converting to OBD1 like needed to get all the power out of the badboy.

Seems like a whole lot of hatin' to me.

I havent cheaped out until now its available and adequate until i build a couple more things and the project is already being done im committed so if you dont have advice on things that might actually work then theres no need to post

I guess he doesnt realize everything were saying is actually helping him, but he'll realize that when hes on the side of the road with that crap turbo!

 

[Kid2000EX]

Honestly you want advice thatll work do like everyone else said, trust me with building cars, patience is a virtue a serious virtue, unless your rich and can drop a car at a shop and leave 10k to get your car built. It seems that those parts suck seriously, you were better off paying for the Ebay kit and just fixing the piping which is cheap, dont crap out on the turbo, you buy that China toejam and then your really gonna be wishing you listened to us when your cleaning all the oil and crap from your motor.You gotta understand most of us who've been on the site a long time have seen these threads over and over and then we see after guys realize that it takes alot to do this stuff and how they wished they listened to us so do yourself a serious favor and STOP!!! Listen to the people here before you start bammin out and understand what weve gone through and what we know before you say that what we say wont work!

EH, NOOBS, they ask for advice and then there pissed when we give them good advice!
