I believe theres only one company that makes a kit for our cars anymore. Forget the name though. Honestly I would do the research and piece together your own kit. added to what g22 asked. how many miles are on your motor/car?

I love it when people say I wanna run X amount of boost... People need to learn that it does not matter how much boost you run, as much as what size turbo to run, what kit you would like... There are several manufacturers that make turbo kits for these accords... You will need to invest in a good ems, and get a good tune, as this will have the biggest issue with adding a turbo kit to your car...

Knowing how much boost you want to run will help in determining what kind of turbo, BOV, wastegate and all that good stuff that you will need. Boost = Hp! The higher the boost the more HP you will make. I do agree on researching the subject so that you can put your own kit together.

Knowing how much boost you want to run doesn’t help at all with how much power your going to make.

One turbo pushing 20psi can be equivalent to a bigger turbo pushing 12-13lbs.
As vettking said it's all about knowledge in what size turbo you want NOT how much psi you want to run.
