Default HELP!!! Turboing my 86 Civic SI... turbo location and radiator fitment issues...

I am starting a turbo project for my 86 Civic SI. I need to either find a new radaitor or relocate my stock one somehow. I also need to figure out how to align the turbo so it clears my radiator and everything. Has anyone ever turbo'd a 86 or older Honda or EW4 engine? Thanks for any info....

wow, interesting project! I would go with a smaller t3 turbo, it will fit much better, also if you have AC, rip it out. As for the radiator, it will probably be ok if you get a slim pusher fan and mount it in front of the radiator. Still going to be a tight fit though. Do you have any pictures of your bay as it is right now?
