my new cheap turbo project the RT4wd wagovan ultimate DD
this all started as a joke a few months ago when a buddy showed me HMT's 4wd civic wagon that was boosted and well the joke of buying and boosting my own has begun. my goals are not to get crazy and dump a lot of money into the project im only trying to build a DD that is still comfortable to drive and reliable.
heres the parts i have
Hf mani
mitsu. turbo (cant remember exactly what it is but its tiny!)
blitx BOV
charge pipes
wideband
boost guage
IC
still need
down pipe
injectors
fpr
fuel pump
and some misc crap
i was also wanting to ask if theres anyone in washington state that u can recomend to sell me everything i need to run turbo edit and tune it as well.
heres the beast!!!!!!
(coilovers are on there way)
i put some ghetto 3" exhaust on it today with a used magnaflow muffler i took off a car last week
please feel free to leave your comments/ suggetsions good or bad i dont care.

6 years ago or so, I had the same color here in Iowa. It was my winter beater - rusted to hell. But, it sure did like to slide. A bit too much understeer, do some sort of rear swaybar since you are adding some power.
Good luck, though! Keep us posted!
I wanted to use DSM parts to boost it and people said the drivetrain would go

WHy? no need to turbo edit should be fine for his goals plus saves him money on the conversion harness and p28

Re: (mattcivic)
whats all needed for the obd1 conversion? i know i will need an obd1 dizzy and as for the o2 sensor i wont need one at all with chrome. if anyone wants to trade i havea set of 780cc peak and holds that i would be willing to trade for some 550cc peak and holds if anyone is interested send me a PM. im going to order the clutch, fpr, walbro pump, fuel filter, fule presure gauge and possibly the obd1 conversion crap.
