So I have a D16A6 short block that I was hoping to toss into my EK for a daily driver, but I'm concerned about the crank sensor. Is this swap even possible? Where does the crank sensor mount and can I transfer it to the A6?

COMPLETELY Parting out my Turbo 97 Civic EX - EVERYTHING FOR SALE! Completely parting out my 97 civic ex turbo. Engine blew and I'm not interested in investing any more money into this car. So here it is, a list of the parts I have for sale. I will likely not respond to PM quickly, e-mail me at...

A little help, I'm a quite rusty with my Honda knowledge. I cannot seem to find a replacement Y8 block for my car locally, but have found a Y7. Can I put my Y8 head on the Y7 short block? Compression differences are no problem, I can tune. Just concerned about oil passages for VTEC...

Cannot seem to find a stock map for a D16Y8 anywhere... It is my understanding that there is a completely different timing setup from a Z6, so using a P28 bin file is out of the question. Anybody have or know where to find a stock Y8 map?

The previous owner of my Y8-turbo had completely chopped off the stock MAP sensor plug to wire the Motorola 2.5 BAR map sensor. I need to re-wire the stock map sensor to pass NYS inspection. I have been through 4, yes 4 stock MAP sensors trying to figure this out. The motorola 2.5 bar works...

96 Civic turbo with OBD-1 Conversion... Everything works good in my car. Should I just be able to swap my OBD2 ECU back in without changing my MAP sensor and DSM injectors (with resistors) back over?? I was hoping I could temporarily plug my OBD2 ECU in and drive it (out of the boost) to my...

twice in one week i have been pulled over for my exhaust and been given a ticket. apparently it is too loud. I have a built y8 @15psi 250-300hp and 2.5" back to a knock-off N1 muffler. high-flow cat (resonator). What can I do? I don't want to pay too much for a cat-back, but a muffler that I can...

I have a ball-bearing GT28RS turbo.... On Garrett's website, they claim a ball bearing turbo should see no more than 40-45psi oil pressure (they apparently have small demand for oil). Past 4k RPM's, I see 70-75psi. I need a restrictor... anyone know where to find a restrictor for this turbo or...

I did not do any of the work to this car, so this is why I ask. How much boost would you think I can safely run on this engine... D16Y8, Forged low comp. Pistons, Rods Stock head GT28R Ball-bearing, water-cooled turbo P28 ECU, CROME tuning Full edelbrock t-kit w/edelbrock intake manny 450cc...

First off, the car works fine, only CEL for IACV which is not activating for some reason... When I slightly press the throttle (as if in a cruise or slowly accelerating), the boost gauge responds with a change in VAC and the S-AFC shows a change in % of throttle (indicating the throttle plate...

The other day I noticed something... my autometer boost gauge shows me maxing out at 14-15 psi right now. My Apexi S-AFCII (used for gauge purposes only) tops at 82kpa (converted to 11.9Psi). With the SAFC getting that reading from a Motorala 2.5BAR MAP sensor, which would you say is more...

I have an AEM adjustable cam gear laying around for my B18 block that I want to install on my D16Y8. Before I go tearing things apart, can anyone tell me if thats going to fit? I would think they would be basically the same, but if someone can tell me if they are or not for sure, that would be cool.

My car currently is running CROME tuning on a P28. I want to use my laptop to log certain things, including A/F ratio. I intend to buy an LC-1 Lambda, what do I need to log this info and integrate the A/F readings on my laptop? Xenocron has a logging cable for only $30 that needs to be soldered...

My 97 Civic Turbo is probably in the 300hp range @16psi (fully built), with OBD 1 Conversion. Right now, I am using DSM 450cc injectors on the stock rail and FPR, but a walbro 255lph pump, wired with the 10ohm resistors. Is this setup correct? or can I unlock more power with larger...

My turbo 97 civic tends to creep up in temperature when stopped. Cools excellently when moving, stays at around 180 degrees. When I'm stopped for a few minutes, it will reach a max of 210 degrees which I'm pretty sure is not good. The radiator fan is definitely working, but I guess I'm...

I have a D16Y8 in my 97 Civic with an OBD1 conversion. I get a code 14, and the car stalls out unless I keep my foot on the gas when the engine is cold. Idles just fine when the engine warms up. I can clear the code, but it just comes back again when I start the car. Brand new IACV too!!! I...

I am now selling my pride and joy, my favorite car in the whole world. 3 years ago, I did an LS swap, boosted, and the engine blew. The car has been garaged ever since that with a cover on it. I had intentions of working on it again, but my 12 second daily driver leaves me with little or no...

Ok, so what the hell is the black box on the back of the engine block?? Need to know what the hell that is and what it does. Need to know. Because it is loose. BTW... D16Y8 engine, 97 Civic. Anyone??

So there is this family that lives down the street from me, and they always let their kids run around in the street and play like idiots. They are leaving toys in the street all the time. On my way home today, they tossed a basketball into the street while playing. Instantly, I ran over that...

Recently purchased a 97 Civic - D16Y8 Boosted with edelbrock kit, fully built, the works. Questions on oil capacity. To avoid oil starvation, how much oil should I be putting into the engine? I know it should be a little extra due to the demand of the turbo and oil lines for it. Also, can anyone...
