87 Honda Accord Turbo
Hey,
This is my first thread, and would like to say this site is VERY highly regarded as a source of sound information in the area of building custom and 1 off turbo pieces and putting together custom kits. So here is why I'm here, I am planning on running a turbo on my 87 honda accord, it has the honda A20a3 motor, which is a 2.0 liter fuel injected engine. I would like to know if any one has this generation of car, and if you do, did you build your manifold from scratch, or have someone build it for you?... Are the power gains from a turbo in general worth having to drop more money than the car is technically worth into the engine?
Thanks, and let me know,
Marshall

heck ya it's worth boostin. ask accordepicenter his car had a stock a20 with 13psi that freakin hauled. and 13.5 on streets with crappy launchs. they are a good motor to boost cast block it will take a lot of boost. and ya your lookin at making your own mani I don't know of anybody that makes them right now you can get the flanges from wiertech I think. pretty cheap too. good luck with the engine management though. I think jay ran a afc hack for a while it works ok. but in the end he went obd1 good luck with the project
