    I'm back, and thinking boost

    Hey guys i havnt been on here for a while, and last night i found a turbo setup i can buy for my cb7. I can get the manifold, turbo, injectors, sidemount, and oil lines for $280.00 this is a very good deal, correct i think so. anyways i would like to turbo my accord downt he road and i figured id buy this setup and put it on later. My current motor has 250xxx miles on her yep alot, and the trans is kinda shot. I'm thinking you guys will sugest either get a lower mile motor, or rebuild my f22a1 in the car. I'm really dumb when it comes to new car motors i'm more into old cars, i dont really know what sensors do any crap except for some. I have friends that could help me but i'm not really sure where to start. Buy the turbo setup up obviously, any sugestions for where to start. Id like to just find a whole new motor, like an a6 with 120xxx or lower miles. What else do i need to install this turbo i'm i will search after this too, like a boost guage, custom piping, new exhaust, and a custom downpipe, ecu. About how much am i going to be looking at for all of this, could i turbo the car and have it reliable for under say $1500, cause that would be great, then i can flat black her and fix the rust.

    btw anyone have some oem 7 spoke 5th gen rims for sale?

    thanks guys

          yea i was expecting him to say a t25 or 13g. But a 16g alone is worth more than the $280 if its in good condition

            I'd be amazed if the condition is good... but hell, even if it needs a rebuild, that's not a bad deal! I'm asking about 900 for my turbo kit with a t25!

              280 for a 16g is a steal as long as it is an ihi turbo and not a shitty knock off. its a really good turbo.
