Ok,

Since some people are so lazy, and won't search I picked a couple of threads about the turbo, supercharger and NSX motor swaps.

PLEASE read these instead of starting new threads about them. If you do a search for turbo or supercharger, there are 53 threads, or 3 pages of info on it. Revive one that is intelligent and go from there if you must, or if you really have something legit, then have PROOF.

If you read some of these threads, many folks come on here and say, Hey, ABC Acme Turbo says they can do a G2 kit for only 4,450.00! Bull Butter! Look how many times it comes up with NO end result. This is why we are locking, merging or deleting [flammatory ones]. It eats up bandwidth. If you haven't noticed, Matt is in a bind due to him being a college student and fees skyrocketing due to excess bandwidth. So we have to either donate or try to appreciate what we are doing here [should be both].

If you look at the trend, you will see what happens to F.I. threads. They are either all talk, all nonsense or flammatory. So if you have a problem with one of us moderators, please take it to PM.

NO MORE nasty feedback threads in this section. It is here for Performance modifications...not headgaskets, not "I hate you for closing my turbo thread", Performance!

This is not us trying to be dicks, but us trying to keep down clutter and make this site affordable and fun. Please, for once in your lives, do as I do. Use search. If the answer cannot be found, please say so in your post, and maybe we can help you. That is what we are here to do.

There are soooo many repetitive threads about tires sizes, wheel offsets, suspension. You know, I put a lot of time into looking up this stuff and making an FAQ, and it still gets asked....not NEW questions, same old stuff!

HELP save the forum, and use the search function and REVIVE old threads vs starting the pandemonium all over again.

Thank you. I am sorry so long, but I have had it with all the bickering. Let's be peaceful and productive. IF you have a turbo or s/c that will work...save it and prove it. Talk is cheap....money talks and you know what walks.

Below are some Turbo and S/C threads that you can use if necessary for reference.

At there site they ask members to join And get pay to get more into the site. This helps to support the site for a lot of cool stuff! I know alot of people may not like what i'm suggesting! But how else is any site going to continue with out some sort of funds?

What some people don't think is this will hopfully update this site! I've been to the Mistsu/galant & 300m web site and looks great!!

#1. No
#2. You have to pay somebody to custom fabricate it. Expect to spend around $5-8k.

next time you have a question, it's easier to start your own thread.

Squires Turbo Systems (www.ststurbo.com) makes remote mounted turbocharger systems. I don't see why it wouldn't work for the Legend. They charge like $5k for their kits, but it doesn't seem like it would be too difficult to replicate. What do you think?

Search under my name - you'll find a long response about the idiocy of one of these "rear-mounted" pieces of crap... an EXTREMELY BAD IDEA...

Correct me if I am wrong; are these the turbo systems where the actual turbo itself is mounted in the muffler area of the car? If so, then we are still dealing w/ 2 major problems:
1st: The amount of area available to accommodate the turbo and the whole system (since the installation of a dual muffler system is troublesome enough for some)
2nd: The amount of pressure available to the turbo system to actually create boost.
Of course this is base on the assumption that the turbo system is the one I am thinking of. I recently saw this system installed on a Toyota truck in a magazine.

The amount of lag you would have, as well as the lack of oil feed to the turbo, would make this "Remote Turbo" kit a worthless investment.
