Im gettin an accord coupe ex 03' , and i was wondering if it would be a good idea to get the turbo as the first mod instead of anything else.

How 'bout this: Get a car, then come back and ask about it.

yea, get the car first. Then if you're going to go turbo, I'd get a nice size custom exhaust (3 inch), get some underdrive pullies, and then get the turbo (if you're buying a brand new car and are going to turbo it, you can afford pullies and exhaust)

You aren't going to add turbo. You say that you are, you even think that you will... but you won't.

well you'll also need new injectors and pump and a new computer to control the fuel. not to mention that your warranty is gone on a brand new car

I thought I posted a quote up here earliar and now its gone...well like I was saying "Before you run learn how to walk first" like everybody said get the car 1st, take of your suspenision and know the inside out of your car then decide if you want turbo.......Are you goign for all out drag? In my opinion you could probably spend your money on a better car with a turbo instead of buying a brand new 2k3 model accord then paying more Gs for a new turbo.......How much are you paying for the car?:bam:

well i was gonna get a twin turbo supra, but the insurance for that car is super high, and if they car has problems, then imma end up payin way too much to fix it. Used cars are unreliable as hell, especially ones that fast. So im going to get a new model and work my way up with something sturdy. I shuld get my suspensions first tho.

lmao!! I was just about to say that word for word! let's feed him his dreams...

Yea man. It'd be easy to turbo. Just get some piping and shit and a turbo and bolt it right onto an exhaust manifold. And you need a FMIC to run 6 psi :rolleyes: And don't forget the perfectly funcitonal BOV routed to the atmosphere!

Used cars are unreliable as hell, especially ones that fast.

I beg to differ. Honda Civics are known for their speed and reliabilty. You should sel lthe car and get an 88 Civic. You'd be done the shit dawg!

im a firm believer of modding the car to keep up with your ability. learn to control your car first...then mod it.

sidenote: if your licnese was taken away already then you must have done something really stupid.
