92 civic LX questions

[AnotherNewbie]

Alright, decided against the swap... Gonna keep the d15b7 stock motor... I know i know, i should search, but too much bickering too look through. Anywayz, do they make a turbo for a 92 civic LX? Also, what type of gains would that make?

[superbluecivicsi]

all the avaliable info and stickies, and people are just lazy to use it.

i wanna pop open my beer too, but, its just too much bickering to sip it.

This site would be awesome if you "learned" folks, instead of being an ass, just answered the question. I've searched for 5 hours, and still have no clue if they make a turbo for a d15b7. If you know, it'd take you 30 seconds to type "yeah, garrett makes one. they claim 200 whp" or just dont type anything.

Your link didnt help in any way. Most links were for d16 or b series... Not at all informative. Are all 900 of your posts so useless?

hey ass...if u want something done do it yourself...go to google...type in slow civic...and see what comes up....j/k...if u want info search for it...i dont knoe anyone who wants to turbo a d15....let alone own one...take a d16 kit and make it fit....and are all 16 of your post on d15's?at least do a mini me swap or something

[superbluecivicsi]

searching is learning. the info is there. you just aint trying hard enough. when you read the b and d series turbo applications, they are 90% applicable to you.

if you actually went through that search, you would have found all that info. if you are still lost in that search, then, i have plenty more links to provide. when you search and learn, then, you will find out that there are more revelant things to the turbo setup than your regular question asking about power gains and application.................a question that is asked approximately once every 2 or 3 days.

any d16z6 turbo kit ill work but beware that kits are usualy tuned for the engine they are ment to be on. u can also put together a turbo kit out of parts in a junkyard or w/e but ur d15 wont be able to take much boost neither will it last very long probably.

[fast2camciv]

lets end this here.
If you need to ask if they make a kit for your car and are to lazy to do the reasearch yourself.
then no they dont and you shouldnt turbo your car anyways cause your just gonna blow it up.
there happy now?

Hahaha, great picture ace!

Why not just swap your motor?

How many miles on your b7?

Honestly I think you would be happier with a z6 swap with less miles or an LS swap and then turbo either of those motors. Hell even go b16 turbo, yea it all costs more but if your looking for perfomance its the way to go.

[AnotherNewbie]

113k miles on the b7... which is why i dont wanna swap yet, wanna get as many miles out of it as i can... even its only 30k more, cause i turbo'd and its not stable

[civicHBsi91]

Well thats also all the more reason to swap...but keep it as a spare incase something bad happends to the swapped motor.

You'll be way happier with a different boosted motor even maybe just all motor B series.

seriously guys, lighten up, what fun can basicaly asking people to stop the forum and just search for everything they need, this is a community right? if your neighbor asks for some suger would you tell them to go to the store? me personaly, i would love to help people out on a case-to-case basis. newbie, turbonetics makes a turbo kit for the d15, it started as a custom job kinda thing but you can e-mail them and ask them for a price. comptech makes a superchanger that CAN work (i hurd there is alot you have to do to actually set it up correctly). thats all i know, and superblue, you have been here waaay long and i think you are getting tiered of it, move to another forum and learn something new, but dont shoot people down so easyly.

No he's just sick of all the newbies who are too lazy to search, as most of us who have been here for years are. I think the problem is (other than people not searching before asking questions) is that there aren't enough stickys with all the links in them, to make it easier for newbies to find info. Not that it will stop people from asking anyways. I mean look at Honda-tech, they've got tons and tons of stickys with links in them yet people still ask questions over and over again. And the way the forum has been going so slowly lately, you're more likely to find an answer searching before anyone even takes the time to get to your question.

And DUI. How about you go to another forum if you don't like it here. I guarentee most of us who have been here a long time, and who tell others to search, aren't all just going to go away. Try going over to honda-tech and see how you like it there. Believe me they rip into people far worse than anyone here does. You need to learn to conform to the way things go around here and conform to the posting etiquette we follow here. Everyone here is more than willing to help answer questions, that's why we're all still here. But when people ask the same damn questions constantly, it gets on your nerves after a while. Stick around for a while and you'll understand.

im not being mean. im just being serious. if your going to ask , "does this turbo fit, what do i need, can it handle this, how much can i boost, can i do this swap, etc,etc,etc...........................and if you searched, you will see that those questions have been asked hundreds of times over in this forum and others. the search function is stressed in every other forum as well, because, these questions have been asked hundereds of times. there are photos, write ups, and info on all revelant honda subjects. As a good and helpful community member, i just try to let all noobs who are new to forums to utilize the search function. it is is a very powerful tool when used right. as you can see, Anothernoobs original question above has been answered by a simple search that has provided plenty of links.................enough links for him to read and educate himself. he will soon find there are more revelant questions to ask than his original question. automotiveforums is the front door to many noobs getting into the honda community. it used to be filled with many good stickies and FAQs, but, after the redo of this site, it has gotten a little more organized, but, also lost alot of good things about this site.

most noobs who ask a question and recieve a search answer take it so negatively. but, that is typical of noobs. they will get over it and figure it out. some noobs just want their answers on a platter...................who wouldnt i sure would. if your going to do some serious work on your vehicle using online forum info...................(1)search (2) learn (3) apply what you learned. asking questions can be applied in betwees any of the steps........................but come on,

I know i know, i should search, but too much bickering too look through. Anywayz, do they make a turbo for a 92 civic LX? Also, what type of gains would that make?

im not that lazy to use the search function. and im using 56k
