    I know of people who have left the AC components in but I have no idea how they did it.

    I've done/assisted in atleast three turbo installs and in all of them I just got rid of the components. It was so much easier.

    I go to school in RI and live just over the border in Ma if you need any help with the install Let me know.

      depends on the size of the front mount, but most people just ditch the AC anyway

        It can be done with creative piping (probably including the exhaust manifold and placement of the turbo itself) but it's not easy.

        IMO, boosting a Honda motor should be left for a project car anyway. Get yourself something nice to drive that has AC, and just yank everything that's in the way in the Accord!

            I hope you're planning on resleeving that H23. FRM sleeves limit your options for forged internals. It's good to hear you're planning on building, though. So many people just boost the stock motor and expect it to last! (I don't mean to offend Eric... )

                Well he's now driving a GSR-R but yeah thats him.

                I don't know much about building H23's but we can meet up some time. We'll bring maple along too.... he's from RI and things are always entertaining when he's around.

                    Was it the meet that started at the mall, and ended up at a park-n-ride place? I was there, if so!
