Diamond Member Username: BestmankindPost Number: 21926 Registered: Oct-05 | Hey guys, I'm sure some of you know of the turbo kits I've been building for the 6th gen Accords and Acura TLs and CLs out there. After seeing Matt adapt my kit to his 7th gen accord, I saw the opportunity to go ahead and try to make a kit just for the 7th gen accords. I do need two volunteers though for this crazy task, just to redo some piping to fit the 7th gen. I'll need one with an automatic transmission and the other with a 6-speed manual transmission. With the permission of Matt, here's the pics from my thread that he posted up of his accomplishment: http://v6performance.net/forums/show...&postcount=291 http://v6performance.net/forums/show...&postcount=314 http://v6performance.net/forums/show...&postcount=688 Here's a list of the components that this kit will come with: A COMPLETE DIY (unlike the threads) which include detailed videos provided via e-book/CD The XS power kit (will be rebadged) The Modified downpipe, flexpipe, y-pipe, and charge pipe E-manage Daily driving fuel map is included (on CD) Boomslang harness Boost Gauges (Oil Temp, Boost) All necessary wiring and fuses are provided Intercooler piping with Intercooler, silicone couplers, and brackets Hose Clamps Oil Cooler with proper fittings and hosing. Oil Sandwich Adapter Oil Filter Custom Manufactured braided oil feed line AEM UEGO (Includes everything from wiring, gauge, and wideband o2 sensor) Manual Boost controller Optional wastegate springs Liquid gasket sealant is included Fuel Pressure Regulator w/fittings Braided Fuel Line Blow Off Valve Wastegate Vacuum lines for the BOV, Wastegate, etc. Super T70 Turbo All Gaskets Provided Greddy Full Auto Turbo Timer w/ Ignition wiring harness Heat Shrink, cable ties, and solder for Wiring Battery Relocation wiring Short Ram Intake w/ Heat Shield, bracket, & Filter Heat Wrap (100ft) Stainless Steel Ties Extra nuts and bolts (in case of any stripped/broken during the install) The ENTIRE kit is covered by a 5 Year Limited Lifetime Warranty. Basically, if there are any parts of the kit that become defective, as long as you have the receipt, send back the original and a replacement will be sent to you. So far, from working up everything such as pricing and the cost of manufacturing the kit, it comes out to $1800 shipped to your door. Also, since the turbo will get you going faster, you'll definitely be putting a toll on your brake setup, so each kit will come with FREE brand new Hawk Performance Ceramic Pads and Drilled/slotted Rotors. Once again, if you guys are interested, let me know and liven up this thread. In order to make this Group Buy happen, I'll need at least 10 people; let's make this happen! |
