Turbo for 04 Accord 4 cyl?
I have an 04 Accord EX coupe, 4 cyl. The car is nice, but could definitely use a few mods. I'm just starting to do some research on what parts are available for the car and I'm having a lot of trouble finding information regarding turbo kits for this motor. Does anyone know of any?
Additionally, when I do start dumping money into the car, I'm thinking a set of 17" rims, some nice tires (I like the Dunlop SP9000s), and suspension are in order. I don't want the car to be absurdly dropped, but I will want to go to the track with it. A friend of mine suggested some kind of adjustable-height setup so that I can fine-tune it for street or track use.
I'm estimating somewhere around $8000-$10000 for the all of it, including an engine management system matched to the turbo. Anyone have any suggestions? Are there any books I should read before I go any further? I'd rather understand what I'm doing than just jump into something on a recommendation.

I'm not really comfortable enough with motors to put together a turbo system myself. At the very least, I want a turbo and ECU software that are matched, and the software ought to be tunable. I hear that the Hondata software is like that, but they don't have anything for my car yet.
AcuraFanatic - Is your car boosted? Did you piece together the setup? Is there anything you can tell me about it?
