2002 4cylinder accord OPTIONS?!? - Honda Forum / Acura Forum

2002v4 · 11-09-2002, 03:05 PM

Ok, Im looking to get some muscle into my car, cuz its slow as a tank now.

Its a 4cylinder automatic (SHIT).
I have been asking around, and a lot of people say there arent many turbo options for me right now because the car is newer or something.

Any help on what options I have for a turbo/intercooler would be great.

P.S. I dont know jack about cars...yet.
can spend up to 10,000 total over the next 5 years.

Thanks

if you want a fast car, just sell your accord and get a different car. i4 auto accords are slow as hell. but there is a turbocharger for your car. fmax has it. the kit is around $3000. btw, your transmission won't last long unless you beef up your transmission.

10,000 to spend over the next 5 years

sell the car...take a 5 year finance for that 10k...have a nice apr vs. credit cards you would have used to spend on the accord parts

so...i'm ballparking you can get 13 or so for your car...maybe less...then add 10k...complex math here...get an rsx-s/wrx/350z/if you save alittle more...G35

later

How do i "beef up my transmission"

And some people were saying my manifold or something may get all fucked up cuz turbo puts more pressure on it or something. What can i do for that?

Thanks

talk with levelten about strengthening your auto tranny, if you really wanna do that. it's not totaly neccessary. when you go turbo, the stock headers come off and an exhaust manifold made for turbo applications goes on.

ok here's the 5 year plan for 10000

1. H22 w/ manuel tranny
2. Built Up
3. Turbo
4. Suspension
5. Exterior

You will have a tight 13 sec car

it would always help to know the correct spelling of manual transmission

anyway...10,000 for a 13 second car is alittle retarded...maybe thats just me tho
plus it has the reliability of the best tuner/shop you can find...nothing close to what honda/subaru/nissan can deliver from the factory

my vote goes towards a 350z if you sell your ride...
