i want boost... suggestions

[prodigymb]

got the clean accord , picked one up that was babied by grandma. i see that ppl are bolting on DSM manifolds and entire dsm setups here. how well do they fit? most importantly how much should ii pay for a dsm setup? any other suggested alternatives. i had 1.8t before i want boost again ppl, without my nsurance compnay giving it ot me in the ass because im 18 !
i did all work on 1.8t by my self so im gonna do the turbo myself too.

thanks

Boosting an accord is not much different than any other engine. A few of the things that make it slightly more difficult is the turbo manifold. The DSM manifold will not let you keep your AC on the F22. The AC system will have to be removed.

With the DSM manifold you will also have to take out your front motor mount (F22) in order to have enough room for the compressor. This can be done, however it is suggested that you strengthen the remaining mounts with polyurethane.

The ECU on the F and H series engine is a mystery. No one really understands how it reads the fuel and ignition maps yet. This makes running standalone on a stock accord ECU close to impossible at the time being. HOWEVER you can use any OBD1 (On board diagnostics) Civic or Integra ECUs. The P06 ECU is the ideal choice for non-VTEC engines, and the p28 is ideal for engines with VTEC.

Turbo rocks.
The DSM manifold will not only bolt right on with slight modification but the exhaust ports match up perfectly. The injectors work plug and play as well as the BOV and 02 housing.
You can probably get an entire turbo kit (everything except the down pipe) for like $1,200 shipped to your house. you can get it done cheaper if you do it piece by piece but then you need to drill the manifold and chip the ECU. the guy i know does that all for you already plus he has some kick ass instructions.

sorry...this must have been written a long time ago before everythign was known about the dsm setup...turns out the AC (and power steering) can be completely retained with the DSM manifold.

*edit*

nvm ur guys are so fast!!! lol

I think u can keep ur a/c lines too......

Go to Board.accordtuner.com and talk to Accord R33 He sells the kits for 1200 shipped to your door. He's a good guy. You get everything except the downpipe. He has VERY detailed instructions as well.

yah. i didnt know it said that. thanks for bringing it to my attention

1200 is more then i have now since i just bought motegi's. i looked at his setup, it looks flawless plus i mightbe able to get most of the parts from a local DSM guy excep the ecu and the intercooler piping which i understand is puzzle that has to be put together its great that tha ACstays because philly is hot as f++k in the summer. u cant do without ac . thing is i dont know if i can drill the exhaust mani. never done anything of that sort. 2 questions for accord33(btw i tried pmin u) 1. would you be willing to sell parts od your kit 2. work with me on stuff that i could bring in and help me with install if i drive up to MA obviously for money. i would really hate the cheap local dsm parts go to waste. another question is dsm turbos, how strong are the 14b,16g. i had a k03-sport on 1.8t and ran 19psi daily, i dont expect that here. but what can i expect?

[Accord R33]

1. i can sell most of the parts seperatly. just keep in mind i buy them just like anyone else, so it would probably be easier for you to buy them (depending on which part of course). for things like the ECU i can do it seperatly.

if you were willing to drive up here i would be more than willing to help.

k03 is the really tiny VW turbo right? ill put it in perspective for you...when i was at the dyno there was a gti 1.8t there with the stock turbo. i think he said k03. anyway. he was running 16psi. i was running 8psi out of my 14b.

he put down 199whp, 210wtq.
i put down 195whp, 215tq. with only half the psi. so i guess that would answer your question about the potential of these turbos. the 16g would be a close to perfect turbo for the f22 (compressor map wise). the 14b is too small. but its not that bad.


edit: sorry i didnt get to your PM. it got lost in the shuffle. its hard to keep up with my pm box. i need a secretary

[prodigymb]

k03 is probably the size of 14b . its the same as gti's, u r right. yeah im gonna try to get most of the parts my self locally. pretty much everything except ecu and intercooler+piping. how much would it be for those 2 things? just so i have figures of what i am working with. also how bad is the gas milage becuase mine is pretty crappy right now?
also what do you think the 16g would dyno

YAY WE CAN KEEP THE AC!!!!!!! r33 get back to me on my pm u dirty girl!

[prodigymb]
