I clicked on the link at the Lht site. The first guy to do this used a turbo charger from a chevy turbo sprint which was a geo. He was running 8psi intercooled with a 4th injector in the intercooler piping. And averaging 58mpg.

Re: (TypeSLO)
Thanks for the props guys.
The owner of the Insight is on Insight Central and still reports an increase in Gas milage. For those that haven't driven a stick shift insight , You have beat them to stay with traffic to get upto 50 mph which is were you sacrifice the gas mileage. Once your upto speed they run very well.
I bought one for my wife when they came out, but driven in the city everyday it became a PITA . After driven the turbo one we built, I would so have another.
Also, The insight ran a 16.2 ET 1/4 at 4 lbs, Which is about what the 89-91 CRX-si ran stock.

Re: (.m a c a)
Yeah LHT gets props from me as well. Excellent craftsmanship. I was running their intercooled s/c manifold on my gsr until I bought my "Z", and John is good people too.
