okay. Im just gonna copy n paste what i typed in the other thread about horse power, and accords. Some of it might not fit this conversation exactly, but youll see where im goin with it.
i just found some people building custom turbos for about 800 bux. Now its no t3/t04e turbo, but you'd be about .5 second or so faster then a prelude if you did it. I cant remember the place off hand (ill link it when i get to the house) but its a IHI turbo, and you'll be hitting 210whp/227wtp @ 9psi so its worth a look at least. Plus our cars can handle 10psi and still be reliable daily drivers. So you do have cheap options for massive horse power increases, and i wouldnt believe everyone else when they say you have to spend 1000's of dollars to have a quick accord, because times are changing, and performance parts are becoming more tangible for people on a budget like us.
Edit: I also saw some people installing their own NOS and NX setups for about $250. If you do decide to do this (its probably the cheapest solution out there, and refills are about 10bux, but dont quote me, i just think i heard someone say that) you should get a dry shot if you plan on going turbo afterwards because it would put too much stress on your engine with a wet shot. And i also heard that you should only boost 20hp per cyclinder, so you could get an 80 shot and smoke foo's! Their are even incremental NOS controlers, so you could time it to your rpm range or possition of throttle. Im thinking about going the NOS or NX route until i save up for a turbo.
