actually Yes, the ford t3 48/60 is a 60 trim T3 and some of them (std shift) are .63/.60 which is even more diseribale, just like the nissan z31 t3.

8psi sounds nice, but I've always been under the impression that stock internals wouldn't put up with more than 6psi for long before going out. Now, short of upgrading the fuel system, I planned on running completely stock on the internals. Do you think stock A20A pistons and rods would hold up to 8psi?

I don't know if I can even chip these old *** ECUs. I've heard 4g Accord ECUs will work, but I'll have to check it out. Otherwise, I'll need to find some other way to tune things.

You can find everything you need to know here. http://www.3geez.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=4 Minus the more technical stuff turbo wise.

You cannot chip the 3rd gen accord ecus, and I've never heard about running a 4g accord ecu. The closest thing that has been found that will run the motor nicely is the p75 ecu.

I would recommend swapping to OBD1 and then then start thinking about putting the turbo on. Unless you just want to run a BTM and a SAFC, but OBD1 is the way to go, its not to bad, the biggest obstacle is figuring out how your going to mount the OBD1 distributor the rest is just a little wiring.
