Here you go:

This is a link to deserthonda's post in the DIY section. Not sure how much $ it costs, but it shows how complex it is an exactly what parts you need.

The cost of the modification may exceed the value of the entire car. In my opinion-----forget about it!--- Sell it and buy a newer stick shift.

thanx 4 the help...it's really useful. I'll finish my turbo system first, then, ill probably buy a civic to put everything on it,(only thing different besides the intercooler piping is the manifold)...though i wanna keep my accord...i love it!
Thnxs again guys,any more help will be well accepted.

P.S: i thought about buying a prelude instead, what you guys think?

I looked into buying a Prelude before I bought my accord. Preludes are pretty expensive though and I could not find one with a decent price that didn't have a ton of miles on it. Plus I would be worried the previous owner may have abused it since it was meant to be a pretty fast car. I think that is one reason a lot of guys buy a JDM prelude engine (with low miles)& drop it an an Accord.
