Default My Turbo Pictures

As i promised i would show some of my progress of my work. Basically i have a 89 Honda Accord Coupe and iv been building this JDM B20A (accord j-spec) for some time now but its coming along.

So far what i have:
Fully built bottom end (wiseco 8.5:1 pistons)and the works
Garrett T3 Super 60 Turbo
Spearco FMIC
Tial 35mm WG
Greddy Type S BOV
Custom built manifold (thermal coated)
Custom downpipe (thermal coated)
Custom Charge pipes (nice mandrel bent setup)
Lots of misc parts brand new waiting for the swap

Major plans:
Possible AEM EMS
Full Head Job
RC 550CC Injectors
LSD

I still have a ways to go but the turbo kit is just about complete.
My car

Bottom end




I just want to thank everyone here that has answered my questions and you guys have been a great help. I learned the a lot in regaurds to turbos here and i must say i would be screwed without message boards cause thats where i have leaned the majority of the stuff i know.
Thanks guys!

Thanks this is my 3rd 89 accord coupe i still have two of them but i guess i got sick of everyone telling me to buy a civic when i wanted stuff done. But i really do like the body style and its nice never having car payments. Iv been working on this for a long time but im trying to finish my degree at UConn so its been very slow.

There are a few nice 3rdgens around and pretty much all the B-series have been done including a H22. But the JDM accord B20A is rather rare and very hard to get so i decided that the stock #'s were not bad 160hp and 140lbs.tq. Plus the turbo i figured would make a really nice swap that fit my car w/o a mount kit.
