I have a 1994 acura integra GSR. 155,105 miles.. I wanna put a turbo on it, and want to run at the least 12psi... Can u give me some ideas what i would need to use, like the parts, to make the engine hold up, like the WHOLE engine.. starting w/ step 1... and aslo, ne recommended turbos would be appecatied.. thanksa lot

 

did you try the forced induction forums?

 

no.. i will.. this is my first day on this honda-tech.. i like it a lot. its real helpful

 

you need to do way more searching....BUT...you need to fix everything that is wrong with your car's engine first if there is anything......You want to put the turbo on a PERFECT engine...pretty much, you can run 12psi on a STOCK block...I'm running 10psi with no problems...and i know people that run 14psi....But if you have the money and wanna be safe, you can start by doing three things....rods pistons and sleeves...sleeves are 1g and you dont HAVE to run them if you only want around 300whp...but rods and pistons for sure..ARP head bolts and good wrist pins...SEARCH IT BRO!

 

my suggestions:

dont buy anything unless u have researched enough to ensure that you can answer your own questions.

make sure u go get your car tuned directly after the install- MAKE SURE YOU ADD ENGINE MANAGEMENT AND TUNING COSTS TO YOUR BUDGET. 12 psi is high, a stock block theoritically should be okay without sleeving, all things stated above are great suggestions. but if youre not tuned, your gonna **** some **** up - better words escape me at the moment.

tune it brother.
