It's a Mitsubishi Heavy Industries turbo, AKA the people that made eclipses, smart guy.

If you want to run a DSM flanged manifold it will work fine, it just kind of limits your upgrade choices in the future.

The serach function works great, try 16g or 14b and see what it comes up with. Im sure youll find lots of informative information in past threads that have been posted. Also try http://www.homemadeturbo.com

Good luck!

That turbo works fine on a D16 but would choke up a B16A/B18C.

What motor are you using?

to be honest I dont know what motor it is.. I bought it wrecked haha i guess its my project car/daily driver when its done.

its a 1999 Civic EX.. so its a D16Y8? what would work better the 16g or the 14b?

i went to homemadeturbo and the 14b looks good also. anyone know a vendor site that sells the 14b so i can compare prices and info?

who makes a 14b?

Man for $450, you could get a really nice used turbonetics, garrett, or precision turbo, t3/t4 at that. Start searching ebay and HT marketplace!
