K, well, I blew up my h22, literally. So, Im back to driving my gutless 89 4dr. Im almost done w/a swap for a buddy, and in exchange, I get his d15(0bd1). I gotta have boost, its an adiction, and the only extra turbo I have is a t3/60-1(.63/.70). Ill probably be using an SST(AC version, gotta have that in the beater
), and more than likely no IC, because its only going to see 5 psi. I *might* use a DSM sidemount that I have layin around, but we will see. Snow will cake the **** out if it, creating a Ice-AIC 
Im wondering if Im going to see boost at all? What do you all think? I also have a Spare z6, I think thatll help a little bit if I run that instead. I dont care if I see any boost before 6k rpm, that last 1k will be fun though

12 psi, afc hack, 12:1 FMU and a dead cylinder before-hand. I wanted to see what would happen
Lets just say that "Project to end all projects" is under-way 
But for now, I need a boosted car to keep me going!

This is the turbo that ill be using. Its kinda small compared to the H22 block, but on a D series block, boy does it make the BLOCK look small
lolIf I indeed DO hit boost by redline, I hope I dont break the 200whp mark(60-1 at 5 psi is like a t25 at 10), cuz those D blocks dont like much more than that(rods).

Hahahah...right on man!
I'm going to collecting parts in my spare time to boost my beater (D15B2 civic hatch)...
Thinking...
-MPFI swap
-One of your log manifolds
-Tiny little T-3 and boost it to only 5-6psi.
-non intercooled
-PM6 chipped ecu with some DSM's
-just connected to stock exhaust

+ cash, and its yours.
DOES ANYONE KNOW if the stock LS 4dr(89) tranny will accept a clutch from a 93 civic SI? I havent had any time to peel them apart and test, but hopefully it will work. Otherwise I either have to buy a clutch for the 4dr, or convert it over to hydro

I dont think the clutch will work...tried it before it didnt look like it fit... Are u taking pics of the rwd conversion? I want to follow your footsteps... What tranny are u going to run for the rwd conversion? h series??

Custom, itll be like a regular header, except itll go up behind the intake manifold, and stick the compressor side up above the trunk lid slightly. yes the exhaust will be around 5 inches long, and itll be sweet
