Welcome 2 the board!

Bard,

Don't wasted your money for the Turbo Kit.

Your car is totally lime-green?

He said Lime Green NEONS, not paint.

For a 4 cylinder accord, I don't think i would bother with a turbo. A 75 shot of nitrous would get you about the same thing, with less money and less maintenance. Turbos that are put on cars that aren't turbo from the factory require very careful maintenance. You have to keep up with it. Get a bottle and have it installed, and all you have to worry about is getting it filled when you empty it. Just don't spray over a 75 shot without upgrading your fuel system. And the price is better too. Nitrous kit should be about $500 and up. Turbos start out A LOT highe.

and i don't think notrous is always the answer. it really depends on what you wanna do with the car too. if the car is not used for drag racing forget the nitrous and get a turbo.
