No, don't even bother with dual point. You'll still have 2 injectors and a TB the size of a golf ball...

WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY

if you do go through with it every and anyone who knows about hondas and the dual point will just laugh at you and make fun of you.

DO NOT DO IT

at the very least, do a DPFI to MPFI conversion first then turbo.

Ah dual point fuel systems, two injectors shy of being totally worthless.

There's no reason to **** on the DPFI for turboing except for the fact that you can do a MPFI for less than $200 and it'll give you a 1000x more response for turboing. OK... so maybe you can **** on it.

If, however, you just have all the turbo stuff lying around and you wanna give it a shot, go for it. It'll work a lot better than stock hehe. But the throttle body only opens halfway and it's like buying a Mazda RX-8 then filling it with cinder blocks. It's truly counter-productive and even if you do it save for the MPFI anyway.

If you plan on spending money on the turbo, spend the money on the MPFI first. It's cheap, easy, and wonderful.

yeha dpfi sucks, i raced a homemade turbo dpfi with my d16a6 (back in the day ) i/e and smoked him, the truth is the dpfi just doesnt give enought gas.

I would go mpfi first then worry about boost (ps dont use FPR and missing link )

MPFI is over-rated internet-hyped **** for guys trying to compensate for something with two more injectors. Boost that dual point!

Over-rated my ***, even thought he D-Series motors are a dime a dozen, I don't feel like spending those dimes everytime one blows due to the fuel leaning out.

Sure he's not going to make gobs of power with it, but it's not going to instantly blow.

Well nothing instantly blows, hell, even a 150 shot of nitrous will run for a second or so on stock internals. It is just not a good idea even though it can done and is not recommended for beginners.
