    For those with turboed cb7's

    Quick question for those of you who have turboed cb7's. Was the turbo setup installed by you, or someone else?? If installed by yourself, or with a lil bit of help, what type of problems did u encounter during the installation process?? I'm tryin to get myself in the habit of repairing my own and tryin to get outta the habit of payin someone else for repairs. I do plan on installing my own setup, but jus a lil shaky bout doin it right now. Thx in advance for the feedback

    My most difficult thing was coming up with cash to buy the parts that I wanted. Other than that do research on sites such as these and make sure not to believe everything you read, not everyone knows exactly what thier talking about and there are many ways to do things, not all right or wrong. Good luck. L8r

          Thx alot mane. I actually learned alot of shit about my accord from bein on this site, and it seems like alot of the cats on this site know their shit. Majority of the time, I read about problems concerning forced induction, but I just wanted to get an idea of what I may be gettin myself into as far as installation before I attempt to jump on this project solo or wit a partner.

            Personally i think the project is rather easy. A little time consuming but nothing to difficult.

            I know AccordR33 has an instal manual with pics that he made up himself. He's done multiple installs so i know its good info. I would say PM him about that and definitly do as much research as possible to prepare your self.

              I read that so many times to try and get myself prepared, I think I can quote and recite just about the whole install process, LOL

                i did most of my own shit, umm u gotta have 2-3 hundred in the piggybank for just in case costs that u will encounter. umm some that werent my favorite is redrilling the dsm manifold. chargepipes are a bitch. oilpan tap is pretty easy and so is the injector and sparkplug install. my oil pressure and temperature gauges were a bitch too. first time i did everything it took about 2 weeks working fe nights a week, now i can take it apart and put it back together in a day

                  My .02 cents. I do not think that this as hard as prodigymb made it seem. The DSM manifold...pwns like he said. Chargepipes are not all that hard. As long as you have the right tools.

                  I got all the tools I need so I can build whatever I need or do not need.

                      Unfortunately, due to my current work schedule...I am unable to do any of that turbo kits stuff. However, the pipes are a mold of my setup for the most part.

                      However, I know how to route them other ways without losing accessories.

                          Being the new guy at this job...I don't really know when my schedule will settle down. I am trying to get overnights permanently. If so, I can do turbo kits when I am home in the day. I am just not sure when that will happen.
