Hey I had bought a 94 integra from my brother inlaw before i left to iraq and it has a vtec d16 in it. figured i do something a lil different. I trying to drop a turbo in it and i was wondering would i have to get a integra specific intercooler or i can use the one that comes with the d16 turbo kit?

 

get a B18 then boost it

that answered his question.....

i would think you would need an intercooler that has brackets to fit an integra frame, intercooler plumbing same story?

 

d16 in a dc? but why.....

 

A d16 is almost worthless to waste money on. D-series engine technology is over 20 years old.

 

you dip ***** he didnt ask no ones smart *** opinions, get the d16 turbo kit you may have to shave the inside bumper cover a bit but it will work. but if you are looking for more power i would consider going back to a ls motor with spray. it may cost the same as a turbo kit depending on what kit you go with, just beware of the stainless manifolds on ebay, the cast ones are way better,
hope this helps

 

bump for this guy's DC1

exactly.... waste of time and money. I just dont understend that.....

 

Spend the money on a b-series engine.

 

i had though about doing the engine swap but i want to go for something a lil unexpected than what everyone else is doing.I plan on getting the JDM DC2 front end conversion. The kit i seen was on procivic.com. It comes with an intercooler that im wondering would fit that front end.It really sucks that being in iraq i can't really look at my car and try to figure out somethings and i dont want to send it to a shop to get engine work done when i can do it myself.

 

who cares what other people say do what you want. a d16 turbo can do 220whp reliably on a stock block and if it blows its just a few hundred bucks away from getting another one and that should be enough to get you into 13s. look into homemadeturbo.com and piece one together yourself. you can get a greddy kit too but you might have to get some custom IC piping because it was originally made for a civic.

 

holy ****, a d16 integra. damn. like the 1st guy said, buy and ls or better yet, boost a b20!

 

Um, don't they have a single cam Integra in Japan...

 

yup, dc1

 

Yeah, there was a thread on it one day...

They also don't have a passenger airbag, dash looks weird...

 

Please put a B18 or even a B16 in it just not a sohc not in a teg. thats not right.

 

wasn't a dc1 only sold out of the us
how did you get one?
