being a V6, you've got a couple issues to deal with.
#1- it has 2 manifolds - 3 on a side.
are you going to run 1 turbo manifold, and one stock header? or spend the crazy cash to a full custom manifold that will allow all 6 cyls to fire at the turbo?
i think that more than anything would determine which size turbo i'd consider going with.
reading what i just typed, im just going.. damn... lol
honestly, i think a Twin setup would be ideal. just like Nissan though it would be in the V6 300zx. but that induces a lot of cost.
i've never seen a turbo kit nor just a plain of manifold for any for the c30's, so you're looking at maybe half your budget just in getting a manifold made.
frankly, if hes only looking for about 100-125 hp gain, why not just get the comptech (or was it vortech?) SC for the accord v6? its the same motor... and will work, fits in the budget, power goal, and will overall, be a much easier thing to deal with.
I think this is the first time i ever recommeneded a sc over a turbo too. lol
