theres a lot of talk about horses exceeding 300 odd. but i thought that in an FF car, anything over 250 mangles controlability. surely that makes the car handle badly????

or am i talking pants?

Any thing over 300 is more like unecessary for street driving in a FWD. 250 is fine actually. When they say uncontrollable, that is based on road courses. +300 for drag is fine.

91turboaccord what engine are you building?

seems likea lot of the turbo kits for accords are for the 4 cylinders, and even those are scarce compared to sports cars because the accord is obviously not a sports car. anyone know of a turbo kit for the 6th gen v6 accords?

Man yall are lucky to be gettin those nice numbers well I'm curious I have just been lookin for a 2002 accord lx turbo system but I can't seem to find very many of them

this DIY turbos sound interesting but I am kinda afraid that I will forget one important part and I will have put all that work into it. How hard is it? How many turbo's have ya done before? and if you guys have any ideas for a turbo for my car I am open for suggestions.

so that turbo kits. com 02 accord drag turbo looks good but I was wondering if it would be better to go with the tuner ready one that doesn't have the fuel map or the drag one (which I believe does have one)? And of course price is a factor.

The Drag is easier to upgrade. You can add EMS, larger injectors, regualtor, and a pump and have a proper setup. All you have to remove is the FMU, old injectors, old pump, and old ECU.
