Default About to Get an EK

I found a 97 EK hatch with only 47,000 Mile !!! I think price is a little high at 6,375 going to try to talk down a little. Anyways Im planning on getting a Greddy Turbo Kit...now the 92-96 kit fits right??? And would I have to get a Y8 IM I know it would prob be smart to do. I Just want to make the car a little more peppier. Where is the cheapest place i can get a kit from to??? Sorry for all the stupid questions I have been out of the Honda seen for a little over a year and lost all my good websites.

I would get the y8 manifold. If not your gonna have to modify the piping a little cuz the y7 throttle body points upwards toward the hood. Plus the y8 should give you a few gains by itself.

Well i looked at the Car it was an Hour away....The rear bumper and hatched needed painted and there were a few small dings. Anyways they came down to $5800... But the clutch catches real high are all honda hydro tranies like that? And the steering felt really heavy when moving already. I mean it was hard turning the car when going like 15 20mph. I know my CRX's didn't have Power Steering but when you were already moving it was fairly easy to turn. Well i got a week to think about it Cause i have an 04 Saturn ION QC-3 Manual i can keep or trade in.

My 97 DX coupe catches about 1/3 the way up. Even when I had my new clutch installed, it still caught in same place. Thats comparing a 130k clutch to a brand new clutch.
