Gettin' the most outta the K24A4. - Page 2

yeah, i didnt word that right, what i ment to say was you cant change the cam overlap like you can on a dohc

Alas, the 7th gen has nothing.


It's on the way!

Question is...how much is it, and when is it available.

that is custom fabrication and 300 hp worth of it....... i reeeally dont think its going to be cheap ^_-

Yeahh..easily $4000 up.

And the thing that infuriates me the most is that it is most likely gonna say: (Exception: 4dr auto sedan w/ MAF sensor)

EDIT- I rather get a universal turbo....for less?

Pretty simple to me..........you want big power you spend big money! That kit will be in the $4800 area, NOT installed, and it's likely that it will never pass emissions testing. I'd go buy a Mazdaspeed 6 with the turbo 2.3 and 6 speed before I'd drop that kind of money on my Accord. Don't get me wrong now, I love my car but that's a lotta bucks!

Patience is a virtue.

I'll wait for more companies to realize the 7th gen accords need turbo kits.

BUILD UR ENGINE!!!! jesus... turbos are sexy but building ur engine means something... i would rather be spanking turbos with a NA car then hanging with turbos in a turboed car...
i just did some more research... we can make totaly sleeper 220 HP cars with 1 ONE modification... we grab the heads off of a 2007 civic SI... from then u shave them dish them stroke and bore our engine then we can look at about 300 HP NA and we would look completely stock in the engine bay :)

Really? Just the headers of a 2007 Civic SI would translate into a 60 HP gain?

I'm no pro in engine rebuilding tho...In fact, I'm quite scared of the idea of taking my whole engine block out.

lol, thats not one mod..... you have head swap, then you have to port an polish, then resleeve, you dont need to stroke an f23 engine, then high compression pistons.

just adding the head doesnt translate to 220hp on a 4 cyl would be nice if it did ^_- but the agressive overbore would cost more then putting a custom turbo setup, cause 100mm bore 97mm stroke can get you 300 hp with the right tuning but..... doing that isnt cheap

I'll look around local body shops and what not. I'll keep you guys posted if such a deal pops up.

ok a k20z3 makes 200 HP the only difference is the stroke compression and heads... the K24 with the z3 heads would be putting out more HP then the SIs just because of the displacement... thats why u bring it up to the higher compression and ur good :) o yeh balancing ur engine is not a bad idea cuz those new heads would bring ur redline up to around 8000 RPM

and who the heck is talking about a f23 engine? these are K20z3s and K24A4s

hehe, sorry, its habit, use to talking about f series

Drilled / Slotted Brake Discs? Yay or nay?

looks cool wont help much... big brake kit... and use brembo... u dont want ur shit shattering

hondas new i vtec system works great for turbos. its the old two stage system that doesnt. and if you want to reduce lag on your turbo system, and smaller piping will speed up the charge. you should use a maximum of 2.5 " for the intake piping. the best thing to get your car to spool up fast is have a good manifold that uses sound as its proprietary technology. one that has its focus point at about 1500

Hey here is a great site to buy a complete turbo kit for you pimp mobile, it does not cost an arm and a leg and my homegirl has one in her 2006 accord coupe, she has not had any problems with it and after my deployment to Iraq I am slamming one in my 2006 accord...so here you go....http://www.importperformanceparts.net/ go to honda and hit turbo kits...you will see it.

O.m.f.g. I <3 you.

I do have an auto though...
