I was looking to try to boost my b16a civic. I know this isn't probably the best FI building platter but could I do well with a turbo setup? If so what setup would I want to go with? I would really like this to become a reality but info on the subject appears to be limited. TIA

depends on which manifold you use and whcih turbo you use....wtih a tubular manifold, my turbo did not fit in my CRX....even with the newer civic radiator.

what size turbo do you have in there?

SiR Kid

It's a 4/3 hybrid, and hell yeah, too much vacuum lines!

Anyway, I'm getting the car back to gether this weekend, but I sold my wheel to a friend, so I don't have any rollers! ARG! Plus, when I pulled it apart, I pulled the turbo off, and uh oh, turbine side's leaking into the exhaust housing.... I gotta get the seals replaced

Fuggin shimmed up oil pump crap

it should be running soon.

Just did it.
I used a 92+ radiator, but i would have been able to squeeze it with the stock rad if i had an external wastegate.

hopefully mine will be done b4 hell freezes over!!!

im using a neon rad!

Stock replacement radiator, all metal, with a slim 12" fan on the tranny side.

There's only about 1/2" from the compressor outlet to the radiator...

no room for a fan on the engine side.

Where did you get it and how much was it?

SiR Kid

1-800-radiator... it was like $125 delivered to your door!
