this is the first time ive ever said this but search! turbo's and civic's are the in thing here it seems

 

yes on the turbo.... no on the 91 supra .... get a d16z6 for cheap from somebody who does a swap.... and then do a lot of SEARCH, so you will know what you are doing with the turbo but the DX will handle the turbo for now.

 

check out RiceyMcRicerton.........he has a boosted Y7
did you put the y7 in the 95 civic??? cux it didnt come like that...

 

d15 bud.

 

you sure you dont mean D15B7

 

...........****. :[ :carves n00b into arm:

 

yah you can boost the B7. how many miles your motor have on it??? here is a pic of a boosted B7 i had.

 

brand new from japan! :D ~12k on it. just got a blown head gasket fixed.. if that partains to anything. sexy boost. aww bye bye AC :[ im not seeing a cooler???

 

did you get the head resurfaced when you replaced the gasket?? were the stock head bolts reused?? here is a pic of the front mount....STEALTH MODE

thanks guys, it is actually a sidemount. i put it in that location and it really just looked like i still had AC, i misted it black so you couldnt see ****. plus i greatly reduced the amount of charge piping, not like that little *** turbo had any lag anyways.
