Default Turbo help please

On my B16A2 sir I am looking to run a 7psi turbo, most of the kits I have seen say they just bolt on!!! is this really the case can you just bolt on the kit and off you go??

Surly some work needs to be done to to the engine??

Yep, that's what turbo "kits" are mass-produced for.

Tuning on a dyno is recommended but not necessary (if you keep the boost at 8psi or under). Go into the forced induction forum and check out how many people are putting down over 300whp on stock B18B's and B18C's.

The only modification you have to do deals with the oil. Such as the drilling the oil pan for the oil return line.. and maybe a few other small things.

Upgrading your clutch is another component to consider..
