Best Way To Boost My D16y7

[AngelMR]

so i been doing some research and im looking for the best deal and best combination to boost my d16y7 i have done so many mistake buying stuff online that i decided to make a thread on what should i get and what not!

your help will be appreciated

first of all is it worth it boosting a y7?

• my mod so far
• Auto To Manual Swap
• 94 Si Tranny
• 7lb Fidanza Flywheel
• Stage 1 Exedy Clutch Kit
• Y8 Intake Manifold
• I/H/E

ok so this is what i been thinking about my turbo set up please post if you agree with the product so i can buy it as soon as possible

• RC AutoWork Log Manifold Price $275 Or Rc Autowork Mini Ram Manifold $ 525
• Ebay t3/t4 to4e Turbo .50 A/R Compressor, .63 A/R Turbine
• Spark Plug NGK 2fr7f11
• Walbro 255lph price $100
• Go AutoWork Piping (fog Light Compactible) 275
• Greddy Type S Bov Price $180
• Rc 440 $300
• 2.5 Downpipe
• Tuner toys Oil Lines
• Ebay Intercooler 28x7x2.5
• Turbonetics Wastegate $300

im trying to keep my set up as cheap as possible but a nice good set up, i know the ebay turbo will not last long but i just want it for now so i can boost my car and later in the future get a turbonetic turbo
if any of you are selling any of this part send me a pm with a price and pics thanks guys!

mine only gripe is the ebay turbo, I would just save and wait a little longer to get a better turbo and get rc 310's, if your building a stock d16y7 I dont think you will max out the 310's ...

thanks this is what i want to hear but i got a question rc 310? why not Rc440 that way i dont have to change it later or will i run rich? what about if i install walbro 255 ahead before turbo will i run rich?

440's will be perfect for what you are looking at doing. 310's are wayy to small.
id rather just get dsm 450's and save ome money if you are on a budget build, also for sparkplugs get bkr7e
they are 2 steps colder than stock, also regarding the wastegate get a tial one. you can find them used for 150-175 bucks. the turbonetics ones suck! they usually creep pretty bad. good choice on the manifold though. i am personally running a rcautoworks ramhorn

dont forget a dumptube

 

[EGHseries]

440 injectors stay away from ebay

 

[Tek-C]

They don't have to be RCs...you can go cheaper and do DSMs with a resistor box...

 

[4drcivicmaster]

^^ did i not say that? lol and a dumptube is not really neccesairy til you actually start driving the thing. get a wastegate flange and 1 1.5" u bend and 1 straight one and weld it up.

 

[codyllee]

what about ems? you need to reevaluate your build list. You are cheaping out in areas you shouldn't, yet spending more in areas not necessary

 

[4drcivicmaster]

run crome and you would be good to go.

thats what i though and about the rc injectors u r right but where can i get dsm 450? and is the tail wastegate cheaper? thanks this is the kind of thread that i need it to go in the right direcction

can u show pics of your rcautowork manifold please

look in my sig. lol or here http://www.clubcivic.com/board/showthread.php?t=144847&p=2321004#post2321004 dude you can get dsm 450's and a resistor box anywhere pretty much. look on honda-tech,craigslist, or even the club civic parts for sale. and yes the tial wastegate is a little cheaper but a whole lot better quality than the turbonetics one or an ebay one.

wow a lot of money invest it ha

 

[4drcivicmaster]

lol yea. its my 3rd d-series turbo setup. my first one was cheap. i ran a 14.1 with it and i pieced it all up with 900 bucks with the 300 dollar tune included. hehe

 

[AngelMR]

wow thats cheap what were u running before turbo?

 

[4drcivicmaster]

i ran a little dsm 14b turbo, a log manifold, dsm 450's and that was pretty much it.
or do yo mean before i went turbo? i just ran a stock y8 til i swapped a z6 one.

 

[AngelMR]

yea before u went turbo
