Turbo for Legend - Finally for real!

Well, someone is actualy working on getting a turbo installed on their 2nd Gen Legend (for those of us with 3.2's you'll understand why this is of interest to us). I will post the link to the thread if anyone is interested, just didn't want to break any policy's or anything, so mods, please let me know if this would be inappropriate. Thanks!

He's got support, there are posts from this week with new pics. Having problems with piping and turbo locations, with putting heat too close to belts/rad but coming along. As for the 3.5 RL engine hybrid, that things done and has a 6 spd manual now. Just awesome.

Well, he's done and got it working!!! Waiting for pics, I hope they decide to build a kit for it, cause I'd LOVE to modify it to make it work on a TL... .... along with a 6 spd conversion.... BIG plans for my car now....

I only wish...if only we could get this to work with the TL! I've actually thought about getting a Legend, trying to find a 6 speed somewhere and start working on it, keep the TL as my every day driver, and just keep building up the Legend. I'm glad my buddy opened my eyes to the Acura a long time ago...these things are so much fun! And no doubt Cornflake...I need to win the lottery too. Big time
