I have a d16z6 civic and i want to turbo it. I know everyone talks about greddy but is there one out there that is the same and that is cheaper? does anyone know where i can get a cheap full turbo kit or even a jackson racing supercharger?

Just to save you from getting flamed. Use the search feature, I know it may take a while, but what you're looking for is there. Projects like this take time, unless you got lots of money then you can pay someone to do it right for you. Otherwise stick around and read, alot of reading will help you prepare to do it right yourself. Oh yeah, don't trust your friends, trust yourself, its your car not theirs, they won't be as concerned about it as you and end up breaking things (personal experience and certain exceptions apply) Good luck! -Mike

I agree with Deltax75. I have a Greddy kit myself, and I learned a lot by doing a search on this site and reading up on what everyone had to say. If you're really serious about doing a turbo setup on a civic, expect to spend 3-8k. As for the D16 specifically, there aren't too many other options other than the Greddy. If you must go cheaper, you can do so by going with a custom setup. Good luck.

The custom route seems the way to go. That way you are able to run the fuel management you wish and buy the parts you wtih. Theres lots to think about when you go turbo. Im still trying to learn and read more about stuff. Heres a few sites that me as a newbie found very helpful.

They will also help if your like me and plan on installing it yourself. Hope this helps
