It looks like some of the piping is only tacked together, so I would guess he's not putting down any numbers yet.

Swap looks very clean and the turbo setup seems top-notch.

You might wanna reconsider having your charge pipies that close to your Manifold IMO.Seems a little close,it'll probably get pretty damn hot but it's totally up to you.I just thought I'd point it out in case you overlooked it.

I would have ran the compressor outlet facing down. Then from there the piping can go through the fender (cut a hole) and then curve it around to the front and into the IC. For a radiator the full-race.com PWR shorty radiator should work. OEM EG and other EG sized radiators are too tall to sit upright.

Agreed.. Same as i plan on doing. Less piping = Faster spool.


What size Charge piping is recommended for a mild setup on b series.. (7-10psi)

sorry i havnt replied, computer sucks and so does its user..anyhow to answer some of your questions.. it has a sock b16 bottem end, with t3t4 57 trim turbonetics. the head has springs , retainers , and a set of crower turbo cams..in between a cometic gasket. i bought a complete drag turbo kit from friend and made some adjustments.. first being the full race manifold,with 3in downpipe, new ic piping, got rid the fmu , ands went aem ems,with some 550 rc injectors,converted to obd1.. added all the trimmings as u can see in my shitty pics i give u, including a set of teins to ride on..
as far as putting the compressor outlet down, u cant unless u want make a hard 90,then another to get into the side of the car. tried and look at everything possible for i c pipe routing, and this is the best , cleanest way to do it.. as far as heat transfer concern i not to worried , u could use heat wrap..
an the rad thing is my most personal issue with this car, i had the fluidyne 92-95 civic ,stock 92-95,and the full race crx prostreet one, which none fit do to the 3 in down pipe. and minor manifold issues..

ps.. when i figure this picture thing out , u will get some better pics..
