My 86 accord used to be carbureted. I converted it to Fuel injection and then to OBD1. I turboed it about a year and a half ago. I've been running 8psi until I had it tuned recently I turned the boost up to 12psi using the ectune ebc. While on the dyno i figured out the turbo was too small for the motor since it won't hold full boost to reline it drops from 12 to 7psi at redline. I had to run maps from a b18, p75 ecu, since there are none specifically for my motor. Stock Motor(A20) w/151k arp head studs torqed down a little extra Gude cam Golden Eagle cam gear advanced 1 deg. T3 42/48 It made 239whp and 237wtq. Run one was on 8psi, run two on 12psi.

Here's a few pics of the car. Its not pretty but its fun to drive.

Very nice. How much does that car weigh?

I've never weighed it, but the weigh from the back of the owners manual is 2500lbs. Its probably around there with all the stock parts removed and modifications added. I ran a 9.113 @ 79.79 mph witha 2.184 60ft in the 1/8th mile. The motor is currently being built and a larger turbo is going on (sc60).
