Great first post n00b. Mine has 213,000 miles, and I almost have all my parts to put my turbo kit on. I think that answers your question.

lots of people in NE tune hondas. Do a compression test, if that's good, boost away. Check out http://www.homemadeturbo.com there are a lot of guys in CT on their too. Just make sure not to make a noob post over there or you will be flamed ;^)

Re: (98coupe)
I boosted my B17a 2 years ago with 150,000 on it and i had sprayed a 75 on it before that for about 1/2year. It held 10psi with a revhard kit and DSM 450cc injectors on the VAFC hax for over a year.

Thats the key and with good tuning. Dont just think you can slap on a kit and make that amount of hp. Have you thought of putting together your own kit?

I've got you all. I've got a 91 LS with 235K that I just turbo'd. I have some little tuning bugs to work out, but it is what it is.

You're too kind.
Project cheap **** in original forum. I've since realized the turbo was shot, so I replaced it. I also came to the realization that the intercooler was a joke and so I'm replacing that as well. Enjoy the mad hoodness.
Well, with the exception of a couple little bullshit things to do, she's ready for raping. 235K miles owns joo.
