Adn when u need parts form them or if something goes wrong u gonna wait another 3 months for it!!! I read a bunch of threads here and on 7thgen civic where pople expirienced too long waiting periods and money return periods!!! so I gave up on ondering the SF kit and i am looking for a good turbo kit so if ya know any kit that comes cloose to the SF or is better thatn the SF List plese! I want a kit that produces a nice amout of power that i can run on stock internals maybe wiht minimal upgrade and for every day driving!!! tx guys plese help if ya can!!!

maxrev sells a turbo kit for our car as well as turbonetics.
i heard maxrev had a few bugs, but they cleared them up now. And I haven't heard anything about the Turbonetics kit.

I agree though waiting that long for a turbo kit is ridiculous.

If you have the money get the X-S engineering kit. you can get it w/ everything including a preprogrammed power fc. and two turbo choices

I never looked for a kit, I figured it would be best to build my own. So my kit is all custom I got what I wanted and left out what i did not need. I am using stock internals also so I left out the intercooler, sure the look great but a 4 to 7 pounds of boost you really don't need one. If you build a kit on your own you will come out cheaper because every one will try to sell you stuff you don't really need.

i checked revhard and they dont have a kit for the 2003 civic EX only SI.
Maxrev i heard does not fit right on the civic and i could findanyone who has one to ask him questions!!!
I agree with building your own but i'm not too much of a turbo wiz and i'm afraind i might let out some things and screw it up!!!

Wehn building your custom kit what is better to have an internal wastegate on the turbo or use an external one??? Or can you use both but what would be the point of having both!
