My thing is, I keep on hearing it is expensive to maintain and that you should do the bottom end up. My car right now has 63K on it. Buy time I have the money for it, I could possible be up too 75-80K on my motor. Don't know if the mileage would agree with the turbo kit. what enegine work did you do to your motor before you put the turbo kit on, was your kit custom made or did you purchase it, and how long have you had it?? Since you have a turbo can you let me know what I would need, and a good place to get one. Thanks for the info.
FMAX kit, cheap $10 manual boost controller to run 10 lbs, clutch, flywheel, VAFC, gauges, exhaust, (probably missing some things) all on a motor that has 97,000 miles on it. stock internals. stock compression. i'll build it up sometime down the road. its about $4000 to have your motor pulled, built, and re-installed
and to be honest, its gonna cost you more to do an H22 swap into a 6th gen accord than a turbo would cost to have installed. i've spent about $4000 installed just on the turbo. i talked to a guy that had an H22 swap and he said he paid $5000 for it. there were a few things they had troubles with
