Re: need help choosing turbo for my car

it looks like it comes with everything,
but you could buy a kit used for like 600 somewhere on there with no intercooler or whatever,
if your wanting to hit 14'z with street tires,turbo will help you reach that goal,make shore your motors in good enough shape to put a turbo on it(valve clearance,timing adjusted,maybe some 750cc RC injectors..)
your best bet will probably be a T70 turbo kit,also you would maybe wanna think about hitting up hondata,msd,bigger cams...
cause if your going to be running that much power make shore you have the stuff to push it.

I found this while just browsing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...926855082&rd=1

but if you know someone who could install it,buy parts separtly,that would be your best bet,because paying 2000$ for a turbos expensive.

Re: need help choosing turbo for my car

$2000 isnt too bad acctually, in like superstreet and online u find most turbo kits for over $3000. Im gonna build my own kit when the time comes for me to have turbo, its alot cheaper and more customizable.

Re: need help choosing turbo for my car

best advice I can give you is buy a book on turbos, theres ones even specificly made about turboing hondas. Read it cover to cover, build your motor to handle it over the long term, then plug in all the formulas and do all the math till you find what best suites your goal.
