08 Accord Turbo or Supercharger? - 7/2/2008 12:47:01 PM    zaltox   Posts: 1 Joined: 7/2/2008 Status: offline I have a 08 Accord coupe V6 and I want to have a lot more power off the line. I don''t care too much for the top end (anything 100+mph), so let me know what things I could do to help achieve this. I''m more concerened with the hp/tourque gain over the gas mileage. I also my be running a hydrogen generator and would like to know if that is ok with a turbo/supercharger. Let me know what your oppinions are. Post #: 1

Of course you will have zero warranty on anything except maybe the tires. I don''''t even know if it is at all possible to turbo the 3.5 because the exhaust manifolds are part of the block. Hope you''''ve got really deep pockets. _____________________________ '04 2.4l 5M EX Sedan Neuspeed short shift kit V-6 6 speed front strut/firewall brace 17mm rear anti sway bar AEM Shorty DC Sports SS Header Kicker Speakers JL Audio Clean Sweep JL Audio Amp 200W Bazooka sub V-6 OEM 7 spoke alloys (in reply to zaltox) Post #: 2

RE: 08 Accord Turbo or Supercharger? - 8/13/2008 5:25:34 AM    superpurple   Posts: 6 Joined: 8/9/2006 Status: offline Well maybe because he does not know of any?  I don''t know isn''t this a honda accord forum aren''t you guys supposed to be on the cutting edge doing mods and have a full understanding of the Car and what works and what dosen''t.  My gosh I have been a member of several forums this is the first one were I have ever seen the members treat someone like an idiot for just asking a question.  you are supposed to help out the new people. If the guy have been a member for 5 years and he ask a stupid question you raze him because he should know, but this is rediculous he is trying to get questions answered he does not know that you guys aren''t proactive and that you all just wait till someone builds a plug and play kit.  The other forums I am on people actually do ther own mods and build there on stuff they don''t just wait till someone else does it for them.  So it would normally make perfect sense for a car entheisiast to go to a forum and inquire about mods.  For example I am part of a GM forum I was inquireing about a turbo kit for the 08 pontiac g8 you know what they were 8 guys who had already built there own and three links the where they were frabicating them right now.  I have an 06 accord and the only kit i see is for an 04 that i would probibly have to modify to fit my car.     (in reply to falkore24) Post #: 13

I read, so I guess that makes me "cutting edge". _____________________________ 2006 Scion TC Short Shifter radiator panel fully lit 3rd brake light strut bar 4pt rear bar sways S-pipe pulley poly bushings poly mounts ETD air horns pending ZPI turbo system 2000 V6-AT (RIP 3G (in reply to superpurple) Post #: 14
