I am faced a terrible problem in my desperate quest to give my engine a blow job!... When i found this site earlier today, I saw a light in these dark times... I knew that there was bound to be SOMEONE who could help me! and if this is not the place, well I'll be daimed!...an i shall semi-reluctantly settle for my buddies ol 89 4dr turbo 323 gt...(for 2500$cnd ....sounds like fun eh? i know... :P but parts are rare... ne way my car looks ten times more killer....) Ever since i bought my first car, a 1992 Accord 2r, I've been dying to slap a big ol' innercooler in its face. Now afterworkin in a garage for 4 years I do feel that I am indeed capable, with perhaps a tad help from my main mecanic/boss, of giving my engine its first blow job. Being a full time student makes it quite difficult to collect enuf green only pumpin gas on weekends to work/invest on my car tho, but i gots a knack for finding thigs cheap! So i gots the intake and exaust suspension takin cares of, ive been givin er oil changes up the ying-yang since i got her. she runs real clean, I try not to drive er to hard cuz shes a lil old...(247 786Km... yea i know dats alot but trust me, its all high way! (student)) But when u give er throttle, it roars quite nicely... an with only one cam on er, she barely burns a drop of oil... so the car is clean, ok, and i could go on...( Ill have motor pics of er soon..) HOWEVER, I am faced with a TERRIBLE problem...My Pops aint backin me u at all...an he is very familiar with engines and turbos, trust me, he knows his ----...And so he tells me that my poor little F22a will not be able to handle a turbo, even at low boost because it is a high compression motor. Now, I am very aware of this (9.5:1 to be exact...) high ratio and am very aware that high compression motors cannot handle turbos well because they use more air/compression to work...and thus i am told that turbos are used on engines with low compression... So, I know that if i really wanted, i would simply have too through in lower pistons n prolly get some beefeer rods in deir at the same time, but rite there, were talkin major cash n time investment if i want it done rite... which i would...SO there HAS to be a way a can just put a lil turbo on my lil 2.2 n run it a low boost, just enuff to hear that lil magical sound of the blow-off... My best plan so far is to simply use a very large intercooler and piping, 3 inch prolly, to increase volume and reduce boost....PLEASE! I am open to all suggestions and ideas! I know theres blown, stock accords out there that are runnin somewhat okay! even if my car only lasts me a few months with the stock internals, i just need it for the coming summer... Im anxious to hear some thoughts, Chris.

 

your old man obviously doesnt know all that much, send 10 psi through that bitch and ull have no problems, 10 psi will turn your father out, no tire hop.

9.5:1 is a boost friendly comp ratio for sure.

 

Chris, quit making such damn long posts. There's plenty of stock accords that are turbo. Your pops needs to step outside the box. Turbo it, and then smoke your dad.

 

from now on call your father stretch nuts

 

No ----, besides the f22 has a iron block with the nice compression it has it takes boost very nicely. They have plenty of f22a1's running around with no problems, the only f22a1 that I ever heard of blowing up was one that ran on 20psi for a week I think it was? Just simply state the facts to your dad and show him that he's wrong.

 

Yeah sorry to say dude but your dad doesn't know as much as you think he does. 9.5:1 is pretty damn low for this day and age, especially for a honda. With the right engine management that thing will love da boost.

 

that was a lot of text asking if the stock c/r is too high for boost.
answer: no.

welcome to the site. pics of your car would be good.

 

hahahaha thats great

 

quit being a -----

 

i've boosted 2 f22's. They seem to like it. please quit saying 'give my engine a *******'
