I worked as a Honda tech for 2 1/2 years and at a Honda performance shop for 6 months,The guy who taught me a lot about small turbo set-ups has been running an fmu for 50,000miles/3 years.
So yeah I didn't have a ton of money to spend and I will make power and be reliable,Don't hate because you're an a*****e,lets see your great turbo set up...

nice, but my custom setups gonna cost a hella lost less then that hopefully haha
nice, what size is that turbo? Dood, if you are on a budget, fmu isnt that bad, sure it isnt the most desirable, but it works, and gets the job done. make sure to setup the fmu on the compressor housing so you dont get that lean spot when going from vacuum to boost... if you go on the intake manifold its almost like the fmu has to play catchup to compensate... get what im sayin??
turbo rules I would never go back to N/A sohc civic...

Here's mine so far
Not pictured are my charge pipes, which are currently being shipped. Also my engine management (uberdata) isnt in the pic. it's just a bunch of chips anyway. I also have an Apexi 3" N1 I could have put in the pic, but Im going to be running an open down pipe for the first while so I didn't bother. Guages, LSD, all that other crap needed arn't in the picture either, but I have everything.
