Default I have the fastest Accord.

HEHE! just kidding seriously though, Have there been any newcommers that have run respectable times in their Accords lately? I know that I am stuck (for now) at 13.2 and a few others like Kentuckyaccord, and ludehrt have run close as well, but any new project cars running?

I'm reseraching custom turbo kits right now...I doubt I'll get near low 13's, but it'll be respectable if it ever goes down. You and your NA H22...

Yes, I am still NA. I have been plagued with tranny problems, then a broken oil line cost me a set of main bearings, but the problems are fixed, the new exaust works really well, still haven't tuned the damn thing yet, but that is scheduled for next week. Hoping to see at least 250 WHP... but it remains to be seen.

The SMSP header was the new addition I was talking about. Since I put the header on, I really haven't had much to drive the car with the problems I mentioned earlier. It did make quite a difference over the DC header I dynoed with originally. The rest of my exaust is still "crunch bent" 2 1/4" tubing through a 2 1/4" cat. This was also dynoed originally. I will be changing this out as well before the next dyno session.

I still haven't hit my personal goal of a 12 second pass, but the engine is built for nitrous duty if I choose. I still haven't decided on what to do yet. I have a civic race car with a similiar engine set up that I am building and that is taking up more time than the Accord... Besides the Accord is supposed to be my daily driver.
