whats a good turbo setup for a daily driven 96-00 civic w/ b18c swap? i wanna keep the A/C and keep it reliable as i can get. would GSR piping fit on a civic chassis? thanks

 

On the B18C you could reliably run 8-10PSI without running into any problems for awhile, if any. This is just what I've heard, I don't think I would test it for even a second on a daily driver.

I would personally stick with 6PSI. I'm not sure about the A/C being kept or not. I do know of some pre-made kits that allow the A/C to be left alone.

 

hrmm what turbo will pass smog test?

 

Greddy kit probably will.

Just make sure you don't throw away the cat.

 

the best kit for what you want would be the Greddy Kit.

 

do they make bolt on kits for gsr swapped civics?

 

Most kits can be interchangable, the piping will just need to be cut here and ther and re-welded to fit up to your application.

Most companies make manifolds that keep AC if you wish, even full-race!! On most of the ac compatible mani's you have to run an exhaust of 2.5 then flare out the piping to 3 past the AC compressor. If you want a 3 inch exhaust.

I have GSR in 97 civic. 10psi daily, pieced together turbo kit, 281whp 180tq.
