They do so either convert to 6spd...$3k...or run a fairly small turbo on low boost and get a tranny cooler.

The 6 spd tranny comes from an Acura TL or CL.  There is custom wiring involved and it is NOT easy.  Here's a link: http://www.6thgenaccord.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4308

You could easily drop up to Ten Grand on turbo or supercharger for that car (complete). Are you prepared to do that?  Figure out the funds before you go any farther.

You'll have to have someone make you a turbo manifold and then fab up all the piping for the exhaust, intercooler, etc. www.car-part.com is your friend for finding a 6spd

well... my at accord is going turbo and all i plan to do is add a tranny cooler.... accords w/out internal mods can get up to 8psi.... not enough to break a tranny.....if u treat it right of course..... evn with internals u wont get much more psi.... swap a better engine or go turbo anyways..... 8psi is a lot of power u know......
Well, i wish u the best of lucks!

Get a smaller turbo if you have an AT.

Pros:
-Basically no turbo lag

well, i went for a t3/t4 hybrid, which means that the cold air turbine (to the intake) is t4 and the hot air turbine (exaust) is t3, which makes it load faster. that's anice size....not big, neither small, just perfect! oh, and buy the stuff on ebay..... for a list of what u need go here: http://www.hondaaccordforum.com/need_ur_opinion_on_f23_turbo/m_55077/tm.htm  and look for my post w/ the list of things i bought... it will be a little different for u, but the stuff should be about the same........
i listed most of the stuff i bought. the only things missing are the new fuel pump from walbro and the fuel rail. u will also need an MSD BTM which controls the timing of the car, since it will be boosted, it needs to lower some degrees.
Well, good luck!

Kevin - you dont need a fuel rail and that MSD BTM doesn't work on our cars.
