Hmm. I was lookin at that. Think he could make me one for $100ish that I could use with A/C,P/S, and a Tial 38mm wastegate?

he said the shop gave you a good price.
he use to do them for 500 in Va.
and most shops charge about 6-8(depeneding on car and kit)
so, he prolly wont do nothing less then 400.

ist a kit from like greddy or a reputable company?.
internal or ex wastegate?
turbo size, will it let you keep a.c and p.s?
turbo, does it come with coolant lines?
diffent peices put together, or all from one company?
ecm/fuel management?
turbo, timmer and control?
what about dump and down pipe?
what about clutch and fly?
what car was the kit on before?

he doesnt have a welder.

Ah. Well I'm an eager beaver/poor cheap guy.
That plus I'm just going for a VERY reliable daily driver build for hopefully just over 200HP, shootin for maybe 215whp. Just bought a cute little HF mani w/an O2 sensor. I'll just rock adapter plate on it and run the internal wastegate. Picking up a bunch of stuff on Saturday so we'll see where this all goes...
And what would I look for in a set of DSM 450CC Injectors? I fond some "blue tops" for $60 but just injectors. Do they need a resistor box or rings or something?

u should try to get black tops. they are dsm 2nd generation and they are dual spray injectors so it sprays on both sides inside the intake manifold. as far as black tops from what i hear the orings on them should work on your obd2a car without having to sand them down. u will need obd1 clips though and ull also need a resistor box from i believe the 92-95 civics if you can get em or just get some resistors at RS and wire them in yourself. i got my blacktops for 80 shipped.

with blue tops...ull need clips, sand down the orings or get new ones and the resistors as well.
precision makes 440cc saturated injectors for 200 i think

XTi is def gonna be cheaper... I it might be 600... its not that much of a discount, cause they buy so many when they first come out so their cost barely goes down :(

The XSi I can get for around 800.

lol its either Camera or wheels

I'm cheap too... sooooo I donno. Plus that and I want to go to Eibach and IA this year

If by some crazy chance I do make it to Eibach, wheels (as of right now) are out of the window. I should probably get my taxes done though haha.
