HELP!!! To Save cash, Can I order a Civic Ex Turbo Kit and then Upgrade the Turbo and Manifold to a
All these turbo kits from the companis are like 1500 dollars cheaper for a Civic, I have a gsr and i was wondering if I can upgrade the turbo and the manifold and still have it all work right and save the money?

Just go with a Drag kit, it cost the same if you buy the the turbo, manifold, plus the fmic.

GReddy will not sell the manifold seperately from the turbo kit

my friend just ported the manifold for a b series motor and it works fine!! just make the bolt holes a littel wider and port it a little and it works great!! and if you want a bigger turbo you can go with a 18g or 20g if you want and the kits are really cheap compared to the drag.

The short answer to your question is 'Yes' You can get the maifold for your car and run that turbo, you may have to play around with the i/c and charge piping a bit tho. Prolly need a custom DP as well.

The Greddy kits I've seen for that cheap don't include the FMIC. Maybe that's why it's cheaper compared to the Drag/FMax/etc.
