Default Finally boosted - D14! :)

Finally boosted!

Engine - D14A4 (Civic 6th gen).

Turbo - Garrett T2, FMU 10:1, inline fuel pump, IC, BOV.
Ignition set at stock.

No signs of detonation ay any rpm (so far), no blue smoke (*phew*), no leaks.

Car pulls very smooth and harder compared to before also at part throttle it's pulling waaaay better!
Since it's only T2 it spools VERY fast - at 2000rpm starts buliding pressure, at 3000rpm it's 5-6psi, at 6500 it's 8psi (boost creep... - internal wastegate).

Well, what can I say.. happy as a puppy!

Will have to go to dyno ASAP to check for A/F ratio (although A/F meter reads rich.. still want to check) + it's nice to find out new numbers

Well, guess this is probably 1st D14 engine that's boosted :D

Yep.. non-US, I'm from Croatia (Europe).
Umm.. what u mean by EDM?

Anyway, just got back home after driving some 100miles arround city.
So sweet! Sound and pull and torque... I love it!

Since originally has 90HP I didnt expect god-knows how much HP, but when I was going home saw a friend in his Del Sol - 125HP. Heh... beat him fairly easy, even tho I was shifting at 6000rpm He was just plain slower

There is a T2 it's rather small, but great for my application. Spools very fast, and doesnt lose boost at higher rpm's.

Hmmm.. so there *is* another turbo D14.. damnnnnn

As far as pics... next week I'll take some & post... no worries!
