j_man_honda's photo gallery 		Good luck for sure! I can't wait to see what that turbo does in that automatic. I am probably gonna base my decision of swapping to 5 speed or staying auto. on your car's performance! No pressure or anything!LOL

Status: offline 		i am curious to see some results as i also have a an auto accord that i want to boost. but there is so much money to be spent when going boosted. how much did you spend so far on the whole boosting process? how much did the apexi cost you? are you tuning it yourself? my tranny has 12ok on it  do you think with a tranny cooler i could run 8psi, how much HP gains can i expect from 8psi? what do you think about swapping to a h22 head so that i can have a DOHC before i boost....peace

Status: offline 		cost....about $2500... apexi neo $310 on ebay.... yeah, a tranny cooler is a good idea, and @8psi u can expect from 80-100whp...(that's a lot)
about the head swap....well, i wouldn't do it...and yes, i did all the work myself.... but that's ur call....swapping to a h22 head means also more compression, which is not preffered on boosted cars....  i'll wait 4 ur response
P.S: j_man, im going to the dyno in a week or 2... i'll try to take a video there so i can post it.... wish me luck!
