Hey whats up. I was just wondering if anyone had any advice on what to do to my 05 honda civic EX. Im thinking about doing a turbo kit, exhaust, and intake. I you have any ideas, or know anywhere i can get parts please let me know.

Thanks...

you might want to do some research first...because turbo replaces an intake, you can't have both...unless if you supercharge or go all motor. Search here on HT, you can learn a lot

Thanks man but I've never heard that before. alot of the people who i hang out with turbos and an intake so if you could explain this to me it would be aloy of help

thanks

Well you can (and should) run a turbo with a filter... And some people run a PIPE from the turbo inlet to that filter...is that what you're talking about? that's the only 'intake' that makes some kinda sense to me.

Well my friend of mine was telling me that you can run the turbo through your cold air intake so you don't have the compression sound. But thats something i want, and what i meant was my friend had a cold ait intake say by like AEM or Injen, then his turbo.

rsintegra

do you mean...not run an intercooler, and instead, connect a pipe directly from the throttle body to the turbo? Yes, people do this. Keep in mind that a 'turbo kit' has all the relevant pipes and parts...so you need not say 'intake' because that can be really confusing...

nah man still run an intercooler but like you know like the air filter/ cold air intake, still have that and the turbo kit
