Installing a turbo kit...

[pakz193]

After researching for awhile and really thinking it over i have decided to put in a Turbo Kit (Turbo Specialties) under the hood of my 04 civic lx. the real question though is if i would be able to install the kit with two other friends. i have had no experience with doin work to the car except for a cold air intake that i put in a few weeks ago. however my friend says that he can put it all in with his friend. they have done some things to their cars and one of them does go to vo-tech (works on cars). but should i allow them to do it or should i just go to a shop? and if a shop where can i go? and how long does it take to put in the kit.

Did you check out this kit? Cause it is the best for a 7th gen.

Yes, but not quite. You may need new engine management. Your stock ECU maps might not work.
