Has anyone ever done a home made (Junk Yard) turbo on a 4th gen (1990 to 93) Honda Accord? Or later years Accord would be okay too. I was just curious if anyone has ever tried it and posted anything? I know that swapping in a H22A would give as much if not more power than a turbod stock F series motor but thought that maybe someone might have turbod their F series motor just for fun and power?

If anyone has done it I'd love to post up a technote on my site so other accord owners could try doing it.

I have heard rumors of the 4g63t flange from a dsm head is very close to the ports on F & H series honda engines, I would check into that.

Thanks Jeff, I've heard that as well with some redrilling on the bottom holes of the exhaust manifold flange. I have a friend with a 1991 Talon (Eclipse) who's going to let me check out his stock exhaust manifold to see how it would fit. If it does then the turbo and all will fit Bruce

Cool thanks for the link

let us all know what you find out, I am very curious to know how well it aligns. What you might want to do is just buy a exhaust manifold gasket for your car and see how well it will fit on the dsm manifold. Placement should be ok, since you guys have alot of room in your engine bays if I remember correctly.

Actually, I have my old gasket as I just replaced my manifold with a dcsports manifold. The engine bay is big enough but the power steering line would probably have to me moved as it is in the way.

Here's a link to a picture of my engine bay with the header installed and that black hose in front of the header is the ps hose / pipe.
