Here's some pix of my car and my friend's car. Both 2000 Accord V6 coupes. My friend is running a custom turbo from HKS (the exact same components on their prototype purple Accord..he bought them) along with a FULL level-10 tranny. No dynos yet because there's still a TON of tuning to be done but I thought maybe you guys would like to see.



The turbo i smounted behind the engine under a heat shield. Here you can see the piping from the Intercooler and the HKS Super-Sequential BOV


The shop that perfromed the work is The Performance Factory in NYC, home of the world's fastest and quickest Supra. Here is some of their work..
This Red Supra has 800RWHP on a built auto-tranny

This Green one was bone-stock last week. Now it has a Bomex Kit, TRD wing and 19" RH M5's with big brakes

Damn Mikey..when did you get a TL? hehe! It's Me...EliteAccord....got anymore pics of the turbo system? How much was it? and how much PSI is your friend running? I'm going to put it in the TL. Please let me know...thanks.

BlackShadow

Nice pics.

Gotta love those Supras!

are they trying to do tests to see how fast it would go on the back of a tow truck?

ElegantTL-S

eh? I didn't understand that..you just circled the fire hydrant....what do you mean tow truck?

Acura3200

uhm... it's illegal just about everywhere to park in front of a fire hydrant. That's a good way to get your car towed or windows smashed if there actually was a fire nearby.

see the attachment.... there's nothing you can do if this happens to your car either because you were parked illegally. This is actually quite common in NYC. A friend of mine lived there and he saw this a few times.

What's that movie where they break the Porsche's windows and do that? Breakaway or something? backdraft? damn, i forgot.

wiggingboy

Damn....nice accord...the Cl rims looks good on ur car.

rominl

i think it's in backdraft and it's a mb?

Chadhova thanks for the compliment but my car pales in comparison to the turbo V6. All the show parts aren't in yet but when completed the white car will have 18" Volk Racing LE37's (gunmetal grey with polished lip) FiberImages Carbon Fiber hood plus the OEM kit, Wings West 3-piece wing, and HID's the car already has.

Elite I've had the TL since may, it's a lease car for my dad..

wiggingboy thanks for the compliment

about the fire hydrant, well thats what comes with running a shop in NYC, there just isn't enough room in the shop so some of the customer cars are parked outside during the day. I wouldn't mind working there just to drive the cars in and out.

ElegantTL-S

DAMN!!! I would be SOOOOO FAWKING pissed if they did that to my car! hehehe...what about here in Southern California?

TUFF GONG

I would think they do that everywhere, including Cali. The firefighters are basically teaching the selfish idiot not to park next to a hydrant the hard way. IMO, they deserve it.
I can't see the plate on the BMW too well but it's not NY.

Acura3200 (Jason) man you have one hell of a archive of images.

rominl

yeah that's illegal and fireman will do the SAME thing anywhere, including cali. i have seen that before, and imho, i think those people deserve it.
