I've got some spare cash, and am trying to decide what to do with it. I was about to order some Tein SS coilovers for $877.20 but after driving my car today and remembering how easy it scrapes, I'm thinking that maybe a lower ride shouldn't be first on my list.

So now I'm thinking maybe I should finally start to piece together a turbo kit. I've been running a Nitrous Express 75 shot since about May and had planned to step that down to a 35 or 50 shot and run nitrous under 3.5k and then run the turbo at about 7.5psi daily, which should give my car some more pep.

Anyways I've already decided that I already want a new swaybar & HID retrofit, but then I have about $900 and am not sure what to do with it. Should I buy a turbo, manifold, piping, etc and get some of the more expensive turbo parts out of the way? Or should I go with something else?

 

and you drive a......

whatever it is, unless you're getting a deal on the HID, I'd pass on that for awhile..

 

?

 

i drive a 2002 accord 4banger. Not looking to get flamed, just some friendly advice

I'm getting a deal on the retrofit, i have a buddy in Richmond that does them. I'm just trying to decide what to do with the rest of the money

 

ah..not flaming, but chances are it'll never be a beast (im assuming they weigh a good 3500 or so).. so I'd personally take the money and lower it with some nice springs, and throw some rims on it

Seriously, good open-minded Accord people there. I'm the only site dickhead.

 

Yeah I would have to agree. newer accords look good slamed.

 

not expecting it to be a beast, just more fun to drive. The stock block can take 12-15psi, so I won't be pushing the limits at all at 7.5psi. At that boost it should make about 200-220whp (up from stock 130whp), nothing special but it will make the drive more enjoyable. In sedan form they weight around 3200lbs btw

only thing keeping me from the coilovers is that I'm afraid of scraping everywhere... and since coming to VT, it seems anytime I go somewhere the car is full with 5 people which just makes it all worse. but who knows

Merf, thanks for the head's up, accordtuner is a good site (higabyte / tracy is also a really cool guy). just looking for input though, not technical data or anything lol

 

I say again.... dragva = flaming.
AT.com = real input from fellow Accord people.

Just giving you fair warning.

 

true lol
