maybe think about some nitrous to get the turbo going... it is definately got to push some air though on the plus side.

still a very large unit usually found on diesel trucks and tractors.

what the inlet and outlet sizes?

I really dont know **** about turbos man... 1.15 and .60 are all i see on this turbo. I bought it not knowing **** and took my buddies word on it since it was to go n his car and he is generally knowledgeable. I paid 400$ for it... so i assume i wont lose too much on it. can one of you point me in the direction of the "perfect" turbo for my application

looks like you got *** raped on that deal... the dam thing was painted over to cover up the rust and aging of the unit... you could have gotten a brand new garrett unit for an additional $200.. good luck tryin to sell or get your $$ back... I would demand a Refund definately...

that thing is way too big. Your engine won't even make enough cfm's to spool that thing up

welll you'v been fucked by your friend, this thing is going on a inline 6 diesel engine, that thing is capable of pushing like 35 pound in a 3.5 inch diameter pipe. you wont be able to spool it to the max without serious mod!! believe me that thing can haull *** on a diesel engine but for HOnda, I'm not shure, usualy those thing are spooled @ 2000 rpm on a diesel engine of course !.

get your money back,
hope this help,
Kranked

I hope you know you aren't supposed to spin a turbo w/o oil running through it.

Also, that thing is huge hehe. I dont' believe it will even fit

I'd look into a MAX REV kit with their Equal legnth H22 manifold. Looks real nice.
