Turbo's run off low compression. Your 2.3 should be around 9:1, mabey a little higher, but it's perfect for boost. Look for tubo kits for 94-97 Accords.
thanks. first off i have to get a manual tranny... lol then find 3 grand. but WHEN i get it i'll post some pics or something.... thanks again.

FMAX makes a turbo kit for the 4cl 94-97 accord that fits our cars. It aint cheap either.

if your really think about it like i ddi before you can get a h22 swap for about that much maybe even less. and then you'll have a better change of finding a used h22 turbo kit , ive seen alot sell for about 1700 (used turbo kit for h22)

I think if you're a car fan and you like your car you should hook it up no matter whether people tell you it's worth it or not. If you want it to look bad ass, or be a sleepr quarter miler then do it. When you truly get sick of your car, or it decides to retire on you then you move on. I think your car modding life will be happier if you do it like this.

you can turbo the f23 motor just dont go above 7 or 8 psi i turboed my f23 a few years ago and blew the motor in 2 weeks....just be careful
you can find used kits for accords all day on the interenet...
i would say you are gonna be happier with doing an h22 swap..i know i was....but then that got boring after a while so i had to turbo that too....
either way you can make the cl reasonably quick

who got the best deal?
the CL tranny is better for turbo than the prelude i believe someone said something about "longer" gears i guess it would allow the turbo more room to spool?

The only thing about turbos that is engine specific is where to mount, and where to run tubing. The turbo itself surely can be used again, but you would need new plummin for her

turbos are not made specif for each vehicle with the exception of deisel turbos
the cl tranny will work with the h22...for both n/a and f/i
