thinking going turbo!! what parts to stay away from

[GhostAccord]

I think if you want a fast car, save up for a sport car. Why force an economical to run faster when it's design for not?

Why not? Not a CB.... still an Accord though

That is what an Accord should sound like...... it shouldn't sound like a Civic!

Most car enthusiasts I know want their car to go fast. Most are a fan of a specific car, and they want THAT car to go fast.

People who just want "a fast car" can very easily find a more suitable platform. A cheap Mustang or Camaro can make massive RWD power quite easily. A lightweight Civic or CRX can be super fast with easy FWD power. A DSM or WRX can be had pretty cheap, and make massive power with boost.
The CB7 is heavy, though decently balanced for what it is. The various 2.2L and 2.3L engine swap options make more sense in the larger, heavier Accord than they do in the lighter Civic (in which they throw the weight balance off pretty noticeably, requiring suspension mods to compensate.) It's FAR from the best platform for performance, but it's not completely lacking potential.
Plus, the look and feel of the car are appealing to many. It's "different" without being difficult. Almost as easy as a Civic, but slightly more unique.

^^^agreed. more then half of us have heard, y put all that money into that old car when you can fix up a "nicer" one. to me sir this one is nice, your factor GT that you put 20" rims on is not.

I doubt you know anything significant at all.. Stay away from a turbo for a few years, you need to learn about them first. In fact, everything you could want to know about turbo f22's is on the internet. You just have to search. I'm going to point you to Google, and say go from there.
