Default turbo crx ic piping

application:

88 crx b16
log manifold
t3/to4e turbo

what ic piping kit will work with minimal welding and just cutting?
and what about a downpipe while ur at it

I found one on ebay for a 94-01 integra that has 90 degree pipe and a pre-welded bov flange. will that work?

We spoke earlier, and I looked ALL OVER the internet for you (what can I say, I'm a nice guy and I'm bored at work), no luck. Ask the manufacturer of that piping kit if they offer something for a CRX, and if not, do they know how hard it would be to mod.

sure you can, plenty of people do this. they baby their untuned car straight to the tuner's garage!

hook up your turbo, but keep your STOCK FUEL (ecu/injectors/whatever you have) and DO NOT hook up the charge pipes. drive your car to your exhaust shop to get your pipes fabbed up (considering the ebay kit needs a lot of work..) and once he is finished, just take off the pipes and drive home. this way, the turbo will be in place so the pipes off the compressor will mate properly, and you will not be boosting since the pipes are not hooked up while the car is running. this is just a suggestion, of course. and, yes, its a lot of work, so you might consider other options (having a welder buddy help you out )

And if that doen't work out for you, type in "civic intercooler piping" on the eBay motors search engine, there are 2 companies that sell custom bent IC kits for a 92-00 civic that I BELIEVE will work for your car (if not its so close that you can probably mod. it yourself). They even weld a BOV bung for the BOV of your choice.

The hotside doesn't match up at all on the kits your talking about. The coldside works fine with a relocated/smaller/or angled battery, but the hotside for the 88-91 is completely different...unless you plan on putting a hole in the frame rail.
