B16A eclipse turbo
 

I have a 93 civic with a B16a motorswap. I just recently purchased a 14B turbo off a 92 eclipse. I am wondering what would be involved in making this work with my car. I dont want so much boost that I would need to swap in lower compression pistons. I am only looking to run 5-7 psi. If anyone could help that would be great.

You would need:
Intercooler (Front mount or side mount)
Blow off Valve
Charge pipes (Turbo->Intercooler->Throttle body)
Turbo manifold
Wastegate (preferably a TiAL)
Downpipe
Decent exhaust (3".. Kteller.com makes good exhausts)

Ohh.. Judging by your title I thought you wanted to put a turbo B16A motor into an eclipse.. Had me shitting myself for a second there..

I'm guessing the factory turbo has an internal wastegate, in which case he doesn't need one, but external wouldn't hurt. Also, for a low enough boost, an intercooler wouldn't be necessary, but definately a good thing to have.

i wouldnt bother, that turbo isnt meant for a high reving motor, so basically your going to be boosting in a powerband thats less than desirable, that turbo will start crapping out at around 6500 ish rpms, That turbo is also internally gated for 12 psi so your going to have to figure out how to lower it to 5-7 psi, (it can be rigged i just dont know how to do it)

if i were you just get a t3/t4 there just a bit more than a eclipse turbo, but it will be worth it in the end.

if u do keep it your going to need an adapter flange to bolt it to a bseries turbo manifold!
