i have also been thinking about getting a tubbed ride, i was thinking about a mitsubishi starion, i was just wondering on any comements from u guys about the car.
it seems u guys here all love ur HONDAs and thats all use ever work on!
but anyway just wanted to say hi and thanks for making such a great site.
im still young and want to learn lots i still dont understand (and probably will never learn everything i want to about turbos and cars) but yeah i try to understand my best but any advice or information would be great
thanks guys

PS. if i purchase a HMT hoody or shirt can it be shipped to Australia?

Re:new around here!
 

welcome, and even though we love hondas here, I'm sure more than half can agree, that the starion gets a thumbs up :)

Re:new around here!
 

What kind of racing will you be doing? for drag you cant go wrong with the starion its rwd, turbo and it makes lots of torque

Re:new around here!
 

Another international member. Nice. :)

Welcome aboard.

Here is the link for the shirts/sweatshirts. I'm not sure about the shipping policy.

Starions are sweet.

Welcome to homemadeturbo

Re:new around here!
 

Starion's are pretty cool cars, My buddy had one in high school and I remember driving home one day hauling ass and we ran into a school bus and I flew and hit the windshield. I will never forget that day, haha. That was the last Starion/Conquest I was ever in.

Welcome to HMT, and even though we are mainly honda based we are all car enthusiast. If you are interested in a hoodie its an additional 7 dollars for international shipping.

well i just got out from under my starion and i was happy not to see a rod threw the pan, doc could a bad oil pan gasket dump about 2 quarts on the ground in about 5 minutes after i turned it off? im kinda leaning towards that or a bad rear seal

Re:new around here!
 

hey i got a question for anyone who knows.........i have a 1995 honda accord 4 door with a f22b1. i want to make it go faster. i dont know if i should supercharge, or turbocharge it seams it would be easier to supercharge than turbocharge because i would have to have a manifold specialy made for my car. but a supercharge is very expensive and im on a very tight buget. does anyone have any ideas on what i can do?

Re:new around here!
 

Are you serious? Why did you decide to post this here? What website are you on? 99.999% of the people on this website are using turbos. You didn't specify which type of supercharger you were thinking about using, but I can already tell you a turbo(especially on a Honda)will be much easier and will net you better results.

Re:new around here!
 

you wouldnt have to have a manifold made, you can use a dsm manifold, look ing the FI forum for the acclipse thread and read up

Re:new around here!
 

DSM manifold and turbo dude. Accords are quite easy to turbo ;)

Re:new around here!
 

This guy isn't even reading what you all are telling him

Re:new around here!
 

where the ---- did this guy come from?????///

Re:new around here!
 

WTF? Is this guy serious? Now I know what I sounded like when I was a noobie! LMAO. Don't worry buddy, you'll get it. Damn it... I have to be nice. THAT"S THE REASON THIS SITE IS CALLED HOME MADE TURBO. WE ARE ALL ON A BUDGET. THAT'S WHY THESE PEOPLE MAKE THEY OWN ----.

Re:new around here!
