I'd rather just try and fix the one I have.

Update once again, was having issues of it running pig rich, but managed to find that I had a few vaccuum lines unplugged and open, so plugged those back up, made sure everything was running okay, fixed the oil pressure gauge once again and took the bitch for a test run.

Started out with low boost. 1st run was 1lb.

Second run we shortened the wg a little and I managed 2.5ish lbs.

Even with an automatic, it felt great. Didn't shift hard, and could feel the pickup nice. 2nd gear felt good.

Still left to do list.
I'm still using the stock spark plugs, and want to gap them to about .36 or lower. What do you guys think?
What about timing issues, any takers?
And a PCV setup, would it be in my interest to use a catch can style setup? Do I need to drill out the PCV valve?

I will have pictures of the done and boosted Accord by the end of this week. Be looking forward to it.

All done and the good feeling of boost.
It's at 5 lbs today at about 4500 rpm's in 2nd gear and not bad for an automatic, which will be my daily driver.
Can't wait to see higher rpm ranges.

Good bov, I will be sure to get a vid to share.

Pic's out the galore, if requested & **** to all who want.



I will be officially taking the ride home tomorrow, so I will have pictures prolly Saturday.

I just want to thank homemadeturbo, and everyone here who has helped me out, cause I've been waiting too long for this ----, and now, I can only imagine what 20 lbs feels like. (Boost driven)

Haha, five pounds is enough for me, especially for that automatic.

Drove it home, no leaks or problems, which is nice, and I hope there are no more. The only two things left are a 10' slim line fan for the condensor, and an oil catchcan. Trying to see which way to set it up.

I'll have pictures tomorrow on the whole build.

Finally finished (Except for a slimline condenser fan for A/C) and boosting ~6lbs at around 5k RPM's.
Very happy with the setup and the way it all turned out. Pulled the plugs, as you will see in the picture. Clean as a whistle; & don't worry I know, I have some blowby; they're old, and autolites. They were only used for testing purposes. Driven 150 miles with them. Suhweet.

Other small things for those who care.

Backed off timing at the distributor only two degrees.
Fixed oil pressure gauge again. (Wouldn't light up.)
Hooked up stereo system for tunes.

Overall, really smooth idle, pickup, and boost with 93 octane, along with a deep throaty exhaust.

Here are the pictures I promised. Enjoy.
