Quick question, on the manifold that lightshow linked up, it says it has the T3 flange. The second generation Eclipse turbo I thought was a T25 so would that interfere or does it not really matter? Both of you guys have helped a lot though and I really appreciate it. You'll probably hear from me real soon. Thanks.

Well I am glad to be informed that the 2g turbo I was going to purchase is totally screwed up and I won't be able to use it at all. So Project Accord is a no for a while. Plus, no cash...

I'm 17 and I think that I am getting like $250 back or something. That's some bull s**t. Plus I am working at Best Buy right now and since the holidays are over our department has been going through labor and hour cuts. I am part time because I am still in school, so its really hard to get some cash. I am selling tickets to a concert and that's giving me some money, but not quite enough. So the Accord is posted up like a mailbox in my garage. Plus, I finally got the new tranny for my 240SX, and oh my God. That thing is insane.

 

I'm slowly finishing up my turbo project (minor things at this point...). eBay will be your friend here. I purchased the log style manifold from F22 parts. It took a while to get it, and when I finally got it, it was bowed like crazy and I had to remachine it. Not worth the money I paid if you ask me, but it does work. Hopefully they'll do a little better welding.

A good t3/t4 turbo (new) on eBay can be had for as little $300. You can find a used one for even less. Just keep your eyes open and do tons of research.

Finding the downpipe will be the funnest part of your build. I recommend making your own, or leaving it to an exhaust shop. My A/C was sacraficed in the end. You gotta do what you gotta do...

LMAO ... you didn't have to sacrafice A/C for the downpipe....it was a trade.... just put your windows down dude... i mean you got the turbo to go faster and if you go fast with the windows down you get cool air ... you see... not such a bad trade ...

 

That's called the 2x100 A/C... 2 windows rolled down at 100 mph cools you down enough.... I want it!

 

Yeah, I like my new A/C. It pushes much more air than my factory one!

but serisouly, I never even used it (and I live in south fl!). Not even in the summer. So I said "goodbye" and took it off.
