Pics of my bro's turbo build

[Sound Streamin']

It's a 95 CX Hatch with a JDM ZC SOHC vtec. Garrett T3 turbo with .48/.60.

*update* well he blew it up big time. Engine is getting a full rebuild as we speak. His head is getting decked (it warped from the heat), he is getting forged internals, and new rings. He fried the old rings and the pistons are shot. His turbo also needs a new seal. It is also getting treated to wiseco sleeves and a crank balance. We haven't found out the exact problem, but we are pretty sure it was a number of things. First off the setup was actually put together pretty poorly. The piping is very inefficient. The bends arnt smooth, that type of thing. He ran it for 2 weeks without using the VAFC hack, he leaned it out pretty bad a couple times so that didn't help either.

Lets just say if you are going to do a custom set up, do it right. Use quality parts (no ebay s**t like he used) and get the proper set up. Spend the money here people.

sick Nice work. Any numbers?

 

[mugen_tuned]

wow, awesome s**t, from stock to boosted, loving it bro.

No number as of yet. the nearest dyno to us is about 300 miles away, so it'll be a while before we get to see some dyno numbers

He had to have the car in a small show today (to show off the engine, not the car lol) so they basically got it running just well enough to get it there. He has hit some boost with it already though. "It's like having a plow wind in the cars ass" is what he told me

P.S. I wouldn't say it was stock before, he had CAI, header, exhaust, crower cam, fly wheel, crank pulley, and a new clutch before the turbo.

Pretty much the same except you have to wire in the vtec wires.

[Mr. Lin]

I see lots of power in store...

 

[CivicSwap93]

beautiful indeed,.. speechless,..nice pics, I cant wait to get a turbo. I'm thinking about either adding one to my B18A1 or stepping up to a B18C1 with a turbo. Of course, that's 3G's more.

Yuppers you see an SS Auto s**t mani. He just needed something cheap-o to get him rolling. Plus, we honestly wanted to see just how bad these manifolds are. Everybody bashes them but it's always "Ya I heard" or "someone told me". No one ever has any first hand experience with them. So we'll see how long it lasts. We're pretty sure it isn't going to last very long.

 

[slammed_93_hatc]
