ok, i have a 98 civic hatch w/a sohc non vtec engine, im thinking about getting a turbo and i just wanna know if it would be reliable for a daily driven car, i usually drive 300-500 miles a week, the turbo is t3 w\ eclipse waste gate,manifold 02 sensor. no down pipe or connectors so just want to know if its a good deal for 400bucks and also if it works with my dailydriven stock internals.

D-t

Yes it will be fine.

Don't boost past the engines internal limit. Watch your a/f.
And a word from the Turbo gods tuning is key.
If you can't get it tuned, watch the boost, if you stay within its limits you will be fine.

Listen to the man that is great advice. Like everyone else has said. Tuning is the key. Along with the parts.

I got that same motor @ 8psi for about 8 months now. Driving daily runs fine.
