a couple of questions on getting more hp
 
i have a 96 accord ex v6, and i was thinking a bout adding turbo to it, & i am trying to find out if this can be done with a regular stock engine.
my second question is what can i do other than add turbo, to get more hp without going broke. now i have a pretty good cold air intake, but thats only a small piece of the puzzle. i am open to any suggestions. HOLLA BACK :confused:

Well since its an automatic, have fun saying good bye to your tranny.


and just for the record, you can't have CAI and turbo.

Get a H22A motor in there... 200 hp.

If you are considering a turbo setup for your V6, I hope you have deep deep pockets.

You won't find an off the shelf turbo kit for your car, due to the high costs and labor fabricating the piping including the manifolds and the low market demand. If you want something fast and cheap, look towards nitrous.

why would you go from an exv6 to a h22? is it really worth it? what are the numbers like for the exv6 drivetrain anyways:thinking:

Nope...not the wise choice at all considering the cost to put the 4cylinder H22 into the V6 bay will cost way more than it is worth.

If you are looking for options there really aren't too many available for the V6 unless you want to boost it. I suggest a supercharger over turbo for a V6 though.

about the supercharger
 
how much is the supercharger, & what are the best brands?
