I believe it can but the issue is that accord manual doesn't have a Limited Slip Differential as the CL-S 6 speedo... So there is little reason to do that swap, you want an LSD Manual or keep your AUTO.

Hey
I would like a LSD but I can't find a 6-speed around my area at all and my auto trann went out, the cars been sitting for a while now.
I have a 2004 AV6 manual transmission on hand that's why I'm thinking if that could be done,

It's for a 2003 TL-P
Not trying to swap out a motor for a TLS and trying to do with a budget
Of no more than $1500 or so
Any ideas or thoughts would help
Thanks guys

Even our transmissions are good with turbo they can hold up but performance guys looks for well, performance? And that isn't usually tied to Automatic transmissions so the Manual swap is in order but make no mistake the Auto can withstand a turbo easily the problem is the faulty design which will lead to faster break down.. Ive seen AV6 Auto with north of 400whp with no Issues or premature failure they just don't make "as much" power as with manual..

Don't swap the Accord Manual if your planning on turbo you will burnout unevenly without LSD like an old Mustang

$1500 won't take ya far if ya gotta pay to have the work done, but if ya have some skilled buddies with tools.....ya may be able to get running again soon.

Take your time to sort things out before jumping the gun and not really knowing what ya want.

Yeah, but the shifting may be fun though. Just don't do the turbo-trot.

You're trying to keep the TL-P engine, go to a manual for $1500, and then go turbo. lol

3.2TLc Its embarrassing to burnout a single tire not even the AUTO does it, It can also induce torque steer and will lose power while turning.

I would not swap a lacking manual just to do so, it's LSD equipped or stick to AUTO. That is why the manual swap is so expensive in the first place.

So never go Accord Manual just to be Manual.. Only CL-S Manual is worth it!!!
