Default can I build my own turbo manifold from my factory header like the CRX HF style??

I have a 95 b18b and was wanted to turbo it but was wanting to know if I can use my factory header and make it into a turbo maniflod? I know they can do it to the CRX HF header but was wanting to see about mine. IF not is there a honda header that will work for the B-series? thanks

my buddy has a d16z6 motor and he used a CX mani, and cut and welded a t3/t4 flange on, and hes having no problems so far, just make sure then the mani u use, lets the turbo sit high up enough that the oil return line has a path that is into the oil pan, so it drip down in...

no,D series have the hf/std manifold H series have the dsm manifold we have nothing lol. also hf/std manifold can be modified to fit a b series but its ports/runners are way too small for a b series,actually kinda small in my opinion even for D series . just get a b series turbo manifold they are only 180 from bmcrace

thanks for the replys.

Where exactly can i find bmcrace?? Is he or it a member and what size of turbos can the manifold fit? Can I take a T3/T4 manifold and make a adapter to fit other size turbos like a eclipse or a 2.2 chrysler factory turbo?

Yes, you can buy an "adapter" but its called a turbo flange, and you would buy a t3t4 flange, or a mitsu flange, or a chrysler t3 flange...there are alot of places to find them, just search
