Default Might Be Coming Back?

The Kia is well, it does..things. It drives... but I miss my Honda ):

I met a local person who loves Honda's and to turbocharge them. I've decided to go to far out of my way and look for another Accord Coupe. I've decided I'm going to go for a 1996+ Accord Coupe EX 5spd.

I've been thinking about coming back since I sold the car in May.. Mine was slowly dying and it needed to go, but I miss it dearly, even though it hardly ran.

Regardless, I figured I'd just kind of post and say hey and update since it had been a while.

Nice....just a few things. The 96+ Accords are OBD-II, so check the local laws. Many states make it hard to do what you want on OBD-II cars.

To make it easy, the 94-95 are OBD-I and almost the same to the 96-97...tail lights, trunk lid, grill insert, ect are different but the rest of the body it the same.

Good luck in whatever you decide.

I already had a 1995 Accord coupe and it was OBD1 and it was terrible, I've got a buddy that works on these pretty regularly and would be able to make it all come together on a OBDII car.

However, thank you!

What I'm worried about is getting a proper "tune" on the car after the turbo install and being OBD-II.

Once the turbo and anything else is on the car - you have to get a tune on the ecu to get the performance,
