Turbo D Series Question?
Ok. I posted a question on building my own turbo for my SOHC D series motor which i think will be cheeper. I can buy what i want and get about the same or maybe more HP then swaping for cheaper. I plan on going with a T25, pushing
6-9PSI of boost. My question is there was a guy on here that said i will need to upgrade fuel "system". What do you mean? Bigger Fuel Pump,Fuel Rail,Injectors? Becuase i dont plan on upgrading any internal's but i want to try and push 180-200WHP. Like I said before I'm not looking for MONSTEROUS HP just something better than the average ricer.
EDIT: I just wanted to give a shout out too all the educated guys on HT for helping my dumbass out. Because when i first got my car i did know a few things but everytime i posted something i sounded like a 15 year old kid with big dreams. And yes i got my share of flames. But anyways thx guys for helping me learn stuff about my honda. Personally I think HT is the best honda fourm out there.

Re: Turbo D Series Question? (civproject17)
my advice is if you dont really know that much about turbos, then start off by buying an already complete kit that you just bolt-on and dont have to worry about fuel managment and tuning and stuff. IMO. but good luck with whatever you do

pushing 6-9 pounds wont really require bigger injectors,..a new fuel rail and maybe a fuel pump wouldnt hurt though
and damn i see you live in sioux city iowa,...i use to live there,..that sucked ***,..might have seen both my cars there,..one gray widebody hatchback and the other was a red hatchback ,..the whole front end primered (did the 99-00 front end conversion) on gunmetal rims,..now the whole car is gunmetal

Re: Turbo D Series Question? (2.0 EK)
**** YEAH DUDE YOUR THE REASON I GOT A HONDA haha wow thats crazy i remember that. But anyways i dont know a little bit about turbo's becasue my friend's all are planning on helping me i could just ask them but its 230am im sure they dont want me to call them and wake them up.
EDIT: Yeah Sioux City sucks ***** sooo many kids with fart cans and rust spots. Most of my friends and all the people in Sioux City are domestic guys but yeah i am just looking to be faster than the average 16 year old "daddy bought my car" kids. I mean being 17 myself i got a honda because of the possiblities not for looks just to smile when some asshat domestic (btw i respect domestics dont flame) gets beat by a stock looking civic
