Is your turbo a t3/t4.......and does it look like your gonna loose your a/c or your power steering when you put it on??

a T3/T4 is too big for a SOHC motor....it'll spool up terribly slow. It would be good for highways, but if you want speed all through the powerband then you should go with a smaller turbo TD04H, T25, T28 and so on. the Stafford Fabrications kit keeps your accesories, AC, power steering and such. its worth it in my opinion

there are about three or four kits out there for the em2, however it is not emission legal if you live in ca. However there is always putting one together yourself. Good Luck

im sure this is a noob ass question but i plan of keeping my civic for a long time and if i got a turbo, is there a high chance of engine-blow-up-age? or would it not last as long that way?

depends on many things, how high boost, how well maintained and so on. if you maintain ur motor and turbo regularly and have proper gauges to monitor then you should be fine and make sure you dont over boost ur car.

granted the motor will not last as long since there will be additional strain put on it, but if the motor blows then just by a new stock motor, they are fairly inexpensive, like only $500 or so.

no question is a dumb question when it comes to forced induction..there really isn't alot of other company's making kits for our cars yet..i would recommend using the sf kit because it is dyno proven to make 185+ whp and 190 ft/lbs on 8 psi. and 8psi is safe to run on stock internals and that is proven to be mid 13's. mike is running 300 hp on stock internals and i think the only prob he had was the clutch slipping on all that power..they are working on a smog legal kit as well..here is all the details

last i heard mike was working on a twin turbo for our cars also!
