Yes the turbo itself will fit. It's the same turbo that comes with the Greddy SOHC kits. However, you will need much more than just the turbo. Try The Parts Trader www.thepartstrader.com for used parts to build your kit with.

Here's a good board that deals with turbocharging D16s:

oki one is how do you change the psi on the stock turbo and secondly what do you mean change the stock manifold to a turbo? you cant use the same one? o and another is how much would it cost for the other stuff for the turbo some people told me it cost them a lil over 200 like about 230 or so and that was jus with the turbo for free not including wastegate and all that... cuz im gettin the turbo, waste gate and the oil line and something else also with it i think... i dont kno i need to talk to him well thanx for the responses yall.take care

1. either by adjusting the wastegate spring or with a boost controller

2. you can use a stock CX, HF, HX, or newer DX manifolds with a plate to adapt a t-25(or similar mistubishi turbo) on it...

3. as for the cost of other neccesities, it depends on what brand you get or where you get it from...
