Hey everyone. It been a while, so i just dropping by to update yah :D.

So i caved in and bought a Turbo kit. The kit was for a J30a1 accord engine aka ebay turbo. The kit was then modified... alot.

Things custom to fit right from
-Cutting Turbo manifold/j pipe to be shorter
-relocating the waste-gate
-Trashed the Turbo mount j pipe and made custom one.
-Custom I.C "inter cooler piping"
-Looked everywhere to find someone who weld a bung to the oil pain "pan" lol, since it is aluminum.
-custom made down pipe
-turbo blanket
-added oil cooler and oil filter relocation kit
-alot of misc and clamps
-also headaches.

overall,pain in the arsh, and 90% no room to make anything fit. but i managed to. Anyways, it fast and fun hearing the pppphhhssstttt sound!

-will be buying a better turbocharger maybe garret or etc. let me know what you guys recommenced.

Holy awesome. How much boost are you feeding that thing now, and how much power are you putting down? Have you strapped it up on a dyno?

this is awesome and i bet its fun, but the piping coming up over your intercooler is raping your intake temps. anyway you can re route that or maybe a turbo blanket and wrap the piping

mother of god, when one does not have enough room in their engine bay, they stuff a HUGE turbo into it... sounds about right. this thing is saucy. i think you should look into the "power dome" bulge for this hood, look more stock and juiced ;)
