    Wanting to turbo my 92 honda civic

    It depends on your setup and what other turbo parts you plan on going with. A kit designed for your motor is probably your best option.

    Wanting to turbo my 92 honda civic

    As prevously said, research. YES your motor can be turbocharged, but it depends on whether it's healthy enough. Do a compression test, and if all is well and there are no other issues with the engine, go for it.

    Wanting to turbo my 92 honda civic

    OP, If the motor is healthy that's definitely possible. I recommend doing some research on the motor and how a turbocharged system works. Here's a good place to start: http://www.beesandgoats.com/boostfaq/g2icturbo.html And don't but a cheap kit someone off eBay. I recommend Go-Autoworks...

    First time in NYC! What to do here?

    Honestly the few times I've been to NYC I just explore places like China town / little Italy, and of course all the landmarks there (statue, ground zero, etc). I bought an illegal turtle in China town once, but the f***er stopped eating like a month into owning him and he essentially killed...

    Saw pictures on instagram, lights looked good! And yeah, I saw some flurries here earlier today. Not ready for winter yet.

    New to the forum and hondas

    It sounds like you have a project ahead of you, but if the motor is healthy it might be worth it. Find whoever half-assed the job, and slap them. :slap:

    Homecoming / alumni weekend here. Friend from NC came up, two from NYC are supposedly coming up as well. Rooftop party tonight! ... Assuming the rain holds out. It's also going to be in the low 50's / high 40's, soooo.... :( But if not, we'll go find somewhere downtown to go get drunk :lol: I...

    Manual Transmission Flush: Options

    I know when I was doing my research, a bunch of people on CRSX were recommending oil. Never really found out why though.

    Haha. It's seriously just a weird coincidence. I don't understand it, I just accept it.

    What are you doing / did you do today / CHAT THREAD

    Oh it's ended. I'm basically seeing someone else now. We finally hooked up at her lake house last month and then decided on just friends. Oddly enough, the girl I'm seeing is a good friend of someone who friend zone just went on a date with and might be seeing. It just so happens they both go...

    Work, then friendzone wants me to go to some fashion show that she's in. f**k that s**t.

    Manual Transmission Flush: Options

    Just be aware that since you have a magnetic drain bolt in there, the shavings are going to stick to it. You might not get much from the magnet because of that. +1 on using synchromesh, it's all I ran though my B18 and never had any issues.

    1997 Civic HX Coupe - LS-VTEC Turbo - 420 WHP - Built Motor - South Florida

    That makes perfect sense. And yeah, there are next to no rust-free cars up here that are 15+ years old. s**t, I'd still have my Honda if the gas tank straps didn't rust away. You could tap the rear quarter panels and watch rust just fall out. :lol: Also, @BlackEK4coupe I still need you to edit...

    Evap monitor comes up as N/A

    Verify they don't check for readiness of o2 sensors, disconnecting the battery will set them to Not Ready.

    Clutch or transmission issue?

    I have to double clutch shifting into 2nd sometimes still. But '02 RSX is notorious for bad 2nd gear synchros. You can try flushing again with a magnetic drain bolt, you might get some metal shavings out of there. When I did my flush, I got a ton of them out.

    problems with my turbo

    I had a xenocron basemap - I was told by Chris to use it ONLY for delicate driving - just enough to limp the car 20 miles away to the tuner. I had @Szady follow close behind me to the tuner, since I was on the highway and also had no exhaust hooked up yet so it was obnoxiously loud. But my guess...
