Default ls turbo problems... PLEASE HELP!!!!

i bought a t3 turbonetics kit for my ls, everything in the kit was fine, but the intercooler piping. It was for a 99si and i did some research and found out that i can use this piping i will just need a longer silicone hose from tb to pipe. But this is not the case the way the piping needs to be ran is right were the ABS is and i don't think i can just take that out. Also the guy puttin the kit on said since i have 550's i wont be able to run the car til i get the ecu tuned (uberdata, hondata, neptune, ect...) im in NY can nyone help
so what can i do? any imput will help, thanx

Sounds like you need to modify the charge piping and get a basemap for those 550s to drive it to your tuner on...

sounds like you got a charge pipe made for a gsr setup.

The gsr intake manifold goes down lower then the ls manifold,.....

wait, you have a integra, that's a different location for abs. hmm

how can it be going where abs is? it's all the way on the left front corner of the car.. i dont understand.

oh wait a second!!!

you said the pipes were for a si! civic piping can be routed through a hole in the frame exactly where the abs is located on a integra. I dont believe you guys have that same hole like civics do.

You must have done some faulty research cus that pipe isnt gonna work. You pipes need to take a sharp right bend and back up.


Get a charge pipe for integra!

yea you should be able to get 280-290whp with that setup... but 300whp is right where ls motors w/ stock internals start to break down.

It all depends on good tuning tho!


Pm Project Dc2 to get that integra charge pipe!

if you wanna go an easier route get the piping off e-bay

personally I would buy 2.5" inch piping and take it to a muffler shop with your car. They will cut and weld as needed. It's really not hard to measure some pipe, mark it, cut it at the marks, and weld it.
