I have a '00 Accord V6 sedan ex, I'm very unsure with the different types and sizes of turbo kits, If someone could please help me out with the right turbo to get, that'd be awesome, i have an obx-r catback exhaust and headers if that helps with the decision, no idea. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, 6 speed swap is better.

As far as turbos. You can do stock STI turbos or other cars, if your just wanted to boost lightly. Make sure there is no shaft play.

Thanks, yeah I'm trying to get as much horsepower as possible, trying to make it a show car as well. So if I were to go with the 6speed swap, should I also get a turbo kit? Or..what's the best way to increase my cars horsepower? re-build engine? Thanks for the help guys, appreciate it.

why does it always come to this BS..gaining HP can come different ways, and most of the turbo process is making sure the motor can handle it. im sorry for double posting, but how much money are you dropping on this? prepping the motor for turbo alone is gonna run you 1k plus.
