The funniest thing about this is this is the customer commuter and every morning the same civic smokes him every morning so he like I want to smoke the civic so I'm ok lets make it 300hp to the wheels that should take care of that civic ... Good Luck to the civic in SF that smokes this KIA every morning

Dude that is awsome... but i think they should give me the turbo and i'll give them something more fitting for the project... like a IHI RHb5

what pics are you looking at? -- there are 4 intake runners and 4 manifold runners--
anyhow
any one can slap on a turbo-- how reliable will it be and how long before that car throws a rod???
what is used for tuning it- SAFC?? not too bad if you up the injectors a bit. and run low boost

nice project

Even if he threw a rod, spun a bearing or cracked a block, it would all be worth it for him to smoke that Civic just once and see the expression on that sap's face. to bullies, even those that drive Hondas.

You took the words away from me, looks just like a sr20 at first glance.

Throw up the numbers this does when it gets finished.

I'm going to guess FMU, which is fine for this setup.

Well, spark said he disassembled the block, so I'm guessing he took a look at the rod sizes, and if he thinks he'll be making WHP that needs a turbo that big to support it, more power to him I guess.

I believe it is a derivative of the Mazda B6, which KIA purchased the rights to produce for their own cars. Some small things get changed between the real B6 and the KIA, no clue as to QC and particulars.
