Exactly....it's an EX, the turbo is way over to the side, and he's making 210 HP and I don't see an "innercooler" or a dyno!!!

That civic kit uses aerodyne turbos. That's the only Honda application I've seen. Very nice turbos.

He probably has the exhuast diverted after the stock catalytic to the turbo... Not very efficient if so. Makes sense to do it that to avoid possible problems with emissions *****. Maybe they are more strict up in mounty land

doubt it. I bet he just has it routed after the upper manifold.


I shot them an email for more details. Im intrigued.
