I haven't heard of any turbo-kits for the V6's. I would imagine that it would be very difficult and expensive. You have to make 2 exhaust manifolds, etc. etc. etc. I would imagine that several companies are working on superchargers, but you'll have to wait a little

well if you mainly want power for the track, and even for the street for that matter, then just invest in a nitrous setup. There're much cheaper than a supercharger or turbocharger kit and come in many different styles depending on the kind of power you 're looking for (and the ammount of money you're willing to spend). They're also very upgradeable.

How are the automatics in your car? I know the 6th gen AV6's, the automatic tranny's were the weak link.

with my accord hatchback, i finally am getting a b18 to fit in it from a friend's help. and the cool thing is, itll have turbo, haha...
sucks though, itll be $5,000. I wonder what my car on the track is right now... I'm guessing 17's. Bleah, importchickv6, your car is awesome. ![]() |
