You can not put headers on a Honda V-6 of 2005 vintage. The exhaust manifolds are part of the block on all 7th & 8th gen V-6's (and perhaps earlier). As far as turboing a Hybrid you are on your own. Honda has enough trouble getting the Hybrids to operate correctly in stock form so good luck.

everything would have to be custom, and trying to find engine management that would manage a turboed v6 hybrid AND pass inspection is dare i say..............impossible

I could see an AEM F/IC piggyback working, but good luck finding someone to program/tune that setup ..... I wouldn't touch it!

Actually they have had a number of problems, but maybe not yours.


x2 on custom work... and engine management... who knows. If you go turbo you will probably lose hybrid functionality.

I don't think he'll lose functionality, but the gas motor turning on and off could make the oil coke in the turbo very quickly.

why did you get a hybrid anyways? turboing it would defeat the purpose of buying a hydrid...wouldn't it?
But anyways, i've never heard of a turbo hybrid... that would be cool... or weird... j/k

But i wish you luck and advise you not to get into F/I... noton a new car (it's only 3 yrs old)

Just something I am trying to look into for the future, car will be paid off soon. I got it because it's an awesome car, 253HP with 30MPG, its great.

But it's either I find something that will work with it, or I just get an old Honda and tune it.
