Was there ever a turbo kit made for the Accent?

I have a turbo on the 1.6 alpha and it has been a blast.



I have also blown up a motor!!!!



I am currently working with a programmer and we do have success in modifying the stock ecu.



I should have results soon.







The kit is currently off the car as I use this for a daily driver. Once we have the ecu tuning in place, I will reinstall. I can also duplicate them.



If anyone is interested, you can buy this one for $1500

^^^ Seriously!?



What is done to the motor internals? The MAJOR issue with putting a turbo on an Alpha is the rings sit too high up on the piston..... POP!

where did you get a programmer? do you have to tune them to turbo them? i have a 09 accent with bolt ons but i still need more power. i cant find a kit anywhere so im trying to find honda turbo manifolds that are close to the alpha manifold.
