bunkaccord, the intro

[wagonkid]

I like the idea of a rear turbo set up myself as well I hope that I can learn more before installing on the cb9 im planning on a f20b swap soon .

I don't think he's coming back. Last I heard he was selling his car. He got his feelings hurt somewhere along the line.

"Psi" depends on the turbo. Anyone who used psi as a blanket "this much is safe" statement is either a moron, or they're trying to sell you something. No amount of boost is safe on a stock f22a. Ring lands break. It might be in two years, it might be in two days. Chances are you might get a few months out of it if it's tuned correctly. Fuel delivery should always be upgraded for turbo. Running lean is the fastest way to go boom.

bunk, you running stock injectors/fuel pump? I know STS says people can run up to about 7psi of boost without any mods to the engine, but you said you're running 10psi? What engine mods did you have to do to accommodate FI, if any?

I drive by his house sometimes. I ought to stop by and meet him. The car is very clean.

That's funny, my wife told me a silverish car "like mine" drove by and slowed down to look at my car. I still have the accord, I'll answer any h2b or remote turbo questions you guys have. The car is a ton of fun, I will eventually I sell it Just not sure when. When the next project car comes along, I will need to free up space for it.

could be pretty cheap if you get a junk yard turbo off a powestroke or duramax and just some pipe and just put it together on a budget $500-800??? idk what is all involved in this setup but im thinking about doing it on the wagon

[deevergote]

I believe he swapped to an F20B or something as well, the last time I saw his car...

I wouldn't mind trying a rear-mount turbo setup on a beater, just for fun. I've actually been trying to think of how cheap it could be done.

[cb9fam!!]

Damn that sucks well i guess its time to get to the drawing board and figure out how to make this happen like did

[deevergote]

He comes and goes. He was trying to sell the car recently, but hopefully he's reconsidered.

[cb9fam!!]

Thats pretty cool it would be a cool project to do over a summer with my boy, may have to look into it. Pretty cool to keep Power Steering and AC and still look stock under the hood. Wonder if you could do the turbo before the cat? or maybe closer to the front without it being in the way at all? I think i found my project, lol my son has been wanting to do something with my wagon and i think this will be a good chance for him to learn to wld and build something with his hands... Is the OP still on here? would be cool to talk to him some and get some info?

[deevergote]

You don't have to deal with a cramped engine bay, for one. You don't have to worry about getting a proper exhaust manifold. Plus, it's unique... which makes it cool, until it becomes popular.

It's not a common thing to do. This car is the only CB I've ever seen with such a setup, honestly.

[cb9fam!!]

I am a noob when it comes to turbos, what is the benefit of running a rear turbo instead of up under the hood?

[af_1132]

Yesssss!

Thanks for sticking it out, and look forward to seeing you in the technical and DIY sections, as well as the MRT section (hint, hint).

Rear mounts work quite well when you do it properly. I saw a commodore that had just had a turbo welded just before the muffler and some crappy hap hazard setup. That sucked.

Good rear mounts are great.

A good setup can be better than standard turbo setups and gets it to ultimate sleeper spec.

I am seriously looking forward to seeing your H2B setup, great work as usual
