That'll work. But eh, that turbo is a bit small. Unless you want good response and moderate power.

it says at 6-7lbs boost that it will increase hp by 30%, that would give me about 170-175hp. Not bad

If that's the power you'll be honestly happy with, then go for it.

It'll be noticeably faster than my 130hp beast as is now.

I think you'd be better with a 45/50shot rather than that setup but if you want FI then turbo it is.

Isn't nitrous FI too?

I guess squeezing would be #1 cheaper, and #2 w/a 50 shot, more power to be had.

Maybe I'll get an electric BOV to go with ith:

The f22 can handle a 75 shot fine, even the automatic with a 75 can be fine, even without a tranny cooler. Up front cost of a bottle is cheaper, but those fill ups add up

For that kind of a low boost non-intercooled setup I'd go with a JRSC. It'll be more torquey since that turbo's not going to give you a lot of top end anyway.

As far as I know there is no blower for the accord's yet, so it's either bottle, or turbo for FI.
