    Exclamation Turbo A20 Plans

    Ya i am planning on turboing my A20 89"ACCORD Lx-i and im not sure what turbo would be best i have read several posts on turboing the a20 but none of them answered my questions. Questions are is the T3/T4 hybrid the best choice for say a quater mile, AND is it possible to put a Y2K turbo on my accord if not is it possible to put it on any motor that being a B- or H-series motor,

    from what i understand, t3/t4 is the only choice... get ready for a LOT of work if you do go into turboing that thing.

    t3/t4 is usually too big. there are many threads about what turbo size is the best. Something smaller like a chrysler super 60 will work better for you. It really all depends on how much motor work you're planning on doing.

    For now I would go with a straight T3 turbo or a T25 but if it flows good you will run out of steam...well come to think of it due to the lower redline a T25 with a good exhaust might do really nice for yah on the low/mid end.

    t3 super 60 is a good drivable turbo on the a20...

    a good 1/4 mile turbo lol...heh just get one that wont crap out at 5500-6000rpms...

    if you reallllllly plan on turboing your accord talk to accord eppicenter and accordtheory, and i know theres a couple more out there right now, but i cant think of their usernames...

    have fun...

    there is a crap load of turbo's available you just go to do your math and compare compressors.
