will turbo fit? (did search already)
I have a 93 civic hatch with a 94 GS-R engine. I want to get a turbo kit and was wondering if i were to buy the civic SOHC kit will that fit my car? Intercooler should fit but im guessing the manifold would not.
Also, if i were to buy the GS-R kit, would that fit the civic? I dont want to spend arm and a leg for this kit either, maybe i can put it together piece by piece.

From looking at your pics, you should have room to fit the mani and turbo, but i'm not sure if Integra IC piping will fit exactly on you hatch. Why dont you go for a custom setup and just get an intercooler kit for a hatch?

thats what i was thinking, piece by piece. Get a turbo kit for a GS-R and a IC kit for a civic. But how much all of this gonna cost me, any ideas?

Yea, two thousand isn't much for a nice setup. I spent close to 4k on mine but went with a nice sized turbo. The greddy sohc kit would work on your car. I remember someone saying they did it. Or you could always buy a used greddy kit for the gsr and just get a soch intercooler kit. That's my suggestion. I hope your installing it yourself too.

Re: will turbo fit? (autoEXturbo)
i wont be running crazy pis on it, maybe 6 or 7lbs of boos. So your saying the SOCH kit will work, what about the manifold, will that fit or will it need customizing. i also have the stock CX manifold i dont know if thats good for anything.

From what i've heard on here it will work. You need to port match the holes and it should bolt right up. I sold my sohc kit to a guy that was gonna put it on a b20 and haven't heard anything bad from him yet.
