Turboing a 1994 acoord
so i am thinking about possibly turboing my 94 accord in the future. it has the F22b2 and unfortunately 185000 miles on it. runs good and it is a 5-speed manual. i am going to be getting new belts and H2O pump. also the brakes are going to be done along with removing the A/C assembly as its a dead stick.
what else should i consider. i know ill eventually need new suspension, fuel system(pump, rail, injectors), also been told my clutch is getting a little old.
i am going to get a compression test eventually, hopefully checks out. if not machine shop. what could i do to the valve train to upgrade?
If i build the turbo kit myself, do a lot of the other work, is there an estimate someone could give me? I need a new goal. lol
also did i miss anything, advice is appreciated in any form.

haha. yeah. ive tried. been reading a little. dont worry im in no hurry and well willing to learn anything. i heard that there was a magazine(do it yourself type thing) that did an entire rebuild of a car from that generation. did they do boost? maybe that can help.
im in the learning and research stage. i need pointed in the right direction.

thanks for the offer but a little too much boost lol. i dont want to exactly have to rebuild the entire motor just yet and like you mentioned gas sucks lol. but again thank you and good luck with your sale
