turbo kit

[SickEk]

just found a used turbo kit with everything for a 92-95 civic. problem is i got a 98. Would the only thing needed to swap be the intercooler piping, and possibly exhaust?

what model is the kit made for? what model do you have?

if you have a y7 then youll have to add an extra u-bend the the chargepipes where it meets the throttle body because of the awkward throttle body position. you may have to modify the downpipe too

kit is made for a 92-95 ex. i got a 98 dx with a y7. My car also has the tb that points up at the hood.

 

[Shiznit]

right, youll need an extra u bend for the throttle body. and probably need to modify the downpipe

thanx for the info man i think ill get the kit and pick up the u bend for the pipin. friend gots a welder so i can get piping and fix the downpipe to fit.

 

[Shiznit]

if you already have an aftermarket intake then dont worry about picking up and extra u-bend. you can just use that

for some reason that slipped my mind. now i am on ebay findin my stage 2 clutch and flywheel so i wont be stuck with my stocker when i pick up the y8 tranny

 

[Shiznit]

keep the stock weight flywheel if your set on going the boost route

 

[SickEk]

the lightweights arent good for turbo? i wasnt sure but that is a chunk of change to save.

 

[Shiznit]

if you get too light of a flywheel, youll do nothing but burn your tires through every gear.

what cars did a y8 tranny come from? all they got on ebay is stage 2's for 94-97 del sol si's. nothing for civic. also just found a stage 3. would that be overkill or work just fine?

 

[SickEk]

disregard all that cuz just found a stage 2 without the lightweight flywheel so that is on my list to buy now.
