Default si with k20...turbo question?

My buddy owns a 99 si with a k20 swap ( complete swap has si tranny ). He has been thinking about turboing the car but he is confused I also am to. I have owned a turbo integra before but was original motor.


I know the manifold has to be obviously for a k20. But what about the fmic and the piping and the downpipe.

Do u buy it for a k20 or for a si and then just customizE the piping to fit. Also same for a downpipe?

We are just figuring out what route to go with this.

Thanks guys

Most things in his setup (along with most turbo projects) are probably going to have to be custom. That's just generally speaking though....

Measuring tape helps in these situations.

I would customize the IC piping, always fits the best that way.
