Got My Turbo Installed!!!!!

[edhgreatone]

I just got my turbo installed and I couldn't be any happier with it... the top end power is just unbelievable I was very surprised with the torque also that it produced.... Its is just greddy 19t kit stock boost with the greddy intercooler oh and they dremmeled my fog lights so I got to keep both of them i am reallly happy about that... I have the egt greddy gauge and the boost gauge... with my turbo timer I have the apexi one the little pen shaped one and they said that they could not install this without the harness it would be a lot easier and I searched and searched for the harness and I found this one site that said this:

"Please note: HKS turbo timer harnesses may be used instead of A'PEXi harness as they are compatable."
(http://www.optionimports.com/autoturbotimer.html)

So I was wondering if anybody could help me find that.... an HKS harness made for my car.... oh and also the people that did my turbo recommended that I go to pepboys and get colder spark plug wires that would be helpful if anybody could help me out there with what exactly I need to buy... thanks for all the help CC members

I will post pictures up tomorrow when it is light outside

how much did the turbo cost u?

 

[dinko]

is it all on stock internals? how many miles on your motor? did you buy it as a kit or did u piece is yourself. where di u buy it?

 

[quicksilver1689]

Why dont u put it in the glove box. under the floormatt lol thats ghetto. Or mount it where u have acess but where it cant get stepped on.

 

[edhgreatone]

i paid $1,200 for the turbo kit itself yes it is on stock internals but its only at 5.5 psi so I should be alright right now I am trying to find spark plugs that are a lower heat range and looking for a boost controller also I am trying to find out if i can use the hks turbo timer harness for the apexi turbo timer thats what is stated on the website so if anybody could help me with this that would be great umm I didn't put it in the glove box b/c that is where they had it I kind of like it there

ngk (blue) wires and plugs are the best. while you're at it, replace the cap and rotor. and i would suggest you get a walbro fuel pump when you up your boost.

 

[edhgreatone]

yeah I am thinking about that fuel pump.... well for now I am just getting the plugs then i'll get my boost controller....

 

[edhgreatone]

does anybody know what the heat range is for the honda civic ex oem spark plugs?

NGK is good but thier wires replace with the sane stock size. 6mm I had them on my last Civic. As for plugs. NGK plugs are not the best.

Get Denso Iridiums and MED Wires

 

[Ravage70]

ngk are the best for ur money and provide the best results

nice man is the turbo new? any dyno runs

 

[edhgreatone]

the turbo kit was used for 650 miles but it is basically brand new it looked like it had never been used I am so happy with it... i am just so glad that I went the turbo route instead of the swap

 

[ekshowciv]

turbo looks good man. have you taken it to the track yet?
