Purchase swaps at hmotorsonline.com , not ebay. There is not a magical whp# you'll get from a turboed d16 @ 8psi. There are too many variables in that broad question

:thumbsup: good info...the last one is a little dated, but still great.

That is the best advise anyone could give. running the oil lines is not at all difficult, but you need to wait until you can afford a decent tuning method and a tuning session before you even begin to turbo the car.

You bought an automatic SOHC Civic with dual exhaust...and you are dissapointed with performance. Not trying to be rude, but you should have researched before your purchase. You bought a gas saver, not a "performance" oriented car. Go buy a car that is advertised at making 300hp stock...you...

I wasn't trying to be a dick either (if it came off that way, I apologize). I just wouldn't want someone to read and think "Well I'm going to run race gas some so I must need a 44" when a 38mm would be more suitable. We've never had an issue with "gas mix/adverse effects" on a 38mm. I guess that...

There's less than a $50 difference between the cheapest H beam and a Eagle H beam. We carry Eeagles, you'll find a few brands on ebay for a little less than Eagles.

Convert the car to 5 speed, remove the dual exhaust setup, check your motor...if its healthy, turbo the SOHC as is.

Youd probably "make" more horsepower completely removing your a/c system v/s your idea. I give props to your teacher for helping the "creative ideas" of his students...but he needs to be slapped for reinforcing the thoughts of this particular idea actually working.

Honestly, you probably arent making 100whp. Automatic+dual exhaust= a loss in power when compared to a bone stock 5 speed y8.

No, I can't see where there would be an adverse effect. You are still using the same wg spring pressure so even on low boost amounts the wg would basically work the same regardless That's not really true. The "rule of thumb" is you can basically double the wastegate spring pressure safely. You...

Pound for pound, $ for $, I'd take a DOHC ZC over a B16 for a "basic" fun car. Are aftermarket parts for the DOHC ZC hard to find...some are. The very first thing I would suggest doing is swapping to a HKS beaded metal headgasket and a set of ARP headstuds. The stock hg is paper and garbage. If...

It is usually going to be the 90-93 Integra rear. Easiest thing to do is just pull the pad off, get a ride to the parts store, and match it up. It is either going to be from a 90-93 Integra or 91 Civic Si...which was available with rear discs stock.

That sounds like your overcompicating a easy build. The B pistons will not work. Stock crank is fine. Your better off just getting a set of H beams if you plan on turboing the motor.

Why are you shifting so early at 6k?? A 50 trim and Z6 is an excellent combination. It should make power to and beyond your stock redline which is 7200, there's no need to shift before that, even with a stock head.

88-91 chassis, yes, it'll work fine whether it's obd0 or obd1 converted. Your resistor box/injectors remain the same. If you are trying to put an obd0 peak and hold injector into a 92-00 Civic, you will need to wire in a resistor box to make them work properly.

What sized turbo and what motor also comes into factor there. The amount of exhaust gas needing to be dumped is basically what it boils down to. There's alot of factors that make it to difficult to say that at "x" hp you need to go up to a 44. We've done setups that were well over 400hp on...

The best way to fix your problem is to take that FMU/missing link and throw it in the garbage. Get the car tuned.

^^ Agreed. You want a suitable intercooler according to the rest of your setup and power goals. A 12" tall core is the tallest that will work easily with the support removed.

The "type" of gas you areusing will make no difference as to what wastegate you should choose. How much power are you trying to make out of your setup? If your manifold is already flanged then of coarse that will initiially dictate what wg to run, but adaptors can be made to convert a 38 to 44.

What do you trap now and what kind of times? What do you do for tires/suspension?
