doing a setup like that should be easy for an accord... you could retain the stock manifold too and just run a y-pipe...
if you ran a weber progressive, and removed the black box and all the other useless crap on the passenger side of the engine bay, there should be ample room to run a setup like that... I would use round piping though... my only concern would be hood clearance

i bet youd have better luck with a weber blowthrough if you knew what you were doing, but they seem to be harder to tune

yeah its a lot harder to tune blowthrough, but you can run an intercooler on blowthrough, but for the sake of simplicity... it looks like draw through is the ticket

yeah it is much easier, it just depends on your performance goals and how serious you wanna get i guess

my setup is going to be similar, sept i dont be using exhaust to drive the turbo
i will be using 12:1 off the engine for that.

I went digging through the pile o parts, and found a small 4bbl from a chevy v6, since I have to make a new mount for the carb, I might as well go a little bit bigger, and it should be pretty easy to tune
