Re: (949)
d16y? did you swap the motor?
i would not put all that money into a turbo set-up and run no type of engine managment...ur just gonna kill your motor...while that is a very vague statment there is only so much we can teach you in one thread...try the forced induction forum and read as much as you can...this will atleast give you a better understanding of how a turbo works and what you need in order to keep everything in copntrol and most importantly, reliable.

You're kinda thinking wrong there buck, suppose to be thinking cheap, aka: no buying.
Just fab stuff together, download the program free. Hook up, and tune. Well the tuning isn't cheap though.
Try starting here: http://www.superhonda.com/tech....html

Then type uberdata, or crome, or turboedti, or hondata, or whatever you want to check out, type it in google and you'll find more info than you ever wanted to know.
