yo, my name is alex and i got a 99 civic dx hatch. im only 15 so i dont exactly have the most $$ but i spend every cent i have on it and i have a huge turbo setup that im gettin on soon, hopefully bringing the d16y7 up to over 300hp!!!





yea its not all jdm yet, but after the turbo kit thats the next thing i'll be working on. i have a set of drag dr16's (gt3's) waiting for some tires, so we'll see about that next...

ooo, and heres a pic of the wheels:


I will post some more pics in the members rides section tomorrow!

How much did you blow on the turbo kit? and youve got a D16y7... Dont expect 300hp. Swap out the y7 head with a y8. Its got a bigger Intake...

You should lower it also.

looks nice, i like the rims it already has tho, gold rims only look good on a few cars and from a few select vendors (volks on a 350z/NSX)

thanks bro! yea the dr16's are a bit expensive and i wish i woulda waited after the turbo kit to get them. i like engine swaps but i just figured that i could get some major power out of the d16 if i put some $$ in it so i never swapped it.:cool:

thanks and yea i like the wheels too but they have some scrapes so i decided to get new ones. alot of people have opinions and they do only look good on a few cars, and i think civics are deff one of those cars.

ooo and here is my turbo setup:

d16y8 intake mani
dsm 450cc injectors
injector resistor box
hks hi power mufler tip
vitara forged pistons, hastings rings
rev speed wastegate
scat rods
arp bolts
cometic head gasket
chipped p28 ecu, obd1 conversion
3 bar map sensor
255lph fuel pump
.50 trim t3/t4 turbo
godspeed fmic
rfl bov
custom ported turbo mani
turbo downpipe
exedy stage 1 clutch lol
dual turbo guage pod
manual boost controller
dyno tune @ 20psi

hoping for 300hp!!!

im sure i am missing some stuff and i will post pics later cause i have to go to a wedding :(

good job with your plans on a boosted sohc. i always like to see the underdog or underdogs (honda, and sohc's) get out there and throw down.

youll prob be looking at around 200+ whp on that motor, which in your hatch, is some giggles considering the power to weight ratio.

imho the rims are a little too big for my tastes, im hesitant to go to a 16" on my hatch because the small wheel/low combo looks so much more well proportioned.

:thumbup:

thanks for the comment! i am really excited to get the parts on and see how it turns out. alot of people i know are domestic fans so they automatically think mustangs are the best cars in the world, until they see my turbo d 5 cars ahead of them...:lol:

and the other reason i got the drags was cause the wheels were too big. they look alot bigger in the pics than in real life, but there still too big for me.

do you know what it takes to get 300hp out of a d16y7?

300 out of your motor is a tad much, but can be done. My friend's 4 door with a d16y7 made 300, alot more now with the y8 head.

But nice ride/plans and what county is 75 or 76 can't tell... I'm in 60, aka Muskingum or Zanesville.

*Edit* Front lip will make it look alot better. :thumbs up

I like the black housing headlights and the Neuspeed brace underneath the car. Matter of fact, I just saw that same brace on an EG a couple of minutes ago.

You said you're 15?
And your call looks like that?
And you have a turbo setup?
All before you have a license?
That must suck.
J/P Quite a start you've got there.
