Decided that Turbo is the ONLY way to go!
About a year ago or so, I found out about http://www.homemadeturbo.com and Ive done plenty of research in how turbo works and all and I wanted to boost my SOHC so bad. I found some parts for cheap but I was in trouble with the A/C. I didnt want to remove it because SoCal weather is burning in the summer and I NEED A/C. So I decided to swap the SOHC and go with a DOHC. I never got it however. A year later, I saw a post of that orange CX with a homemade turbo system and it got me going again. Boosting is the only fun way to go...And I've decided that no matter how "cool" N/A can be, boosting is always gonna be more fun. So now, I'm gonna start shopping for parts again, and after summer, Im going to remove that dayam A/C so I can get the DP to fit in that stupid engine bay...Just wanted to let you FI people know even though I never post in here, I'm always reading..and ONE person got me back on track and I owe it to him. I dont know what his name is but its the orange eg/eh CX hb with the d16z6 and custom homemade turbo..whoever you are, thanks for knocking the sense in me even though you didnt even know it..

Im thinking about T25 or a TD04 mated with a CR-X HF manifold..and custom from there. I just need a good price for an FMU and oil fittings..and I'll basically be set...

Congratulations on going turbo. Who needs a/c just roll down the windows....that's what I do. I live in southern cali too....and it hits 115 here every summer. But I love being boosted.

OK party woman, check out Gary and my site below before you jump to Jeff's site. You may find a bit more information than Jeff has. Gary and I have been running our T25 turbos with HF manifolds for about a year now and have never broken anything. Keep up the research and once you go turbo, you'll never go back.

I need a Turbo...T25 or TD04H...Dont matter what...I just want one in working order...with little to no play at all...Any small turbo that will give me full boost around 3k will be fine..
