The first two links in that thread are "What's in a turbo kit? What do I need?"

For all the idiots that keeps saying search, They do realize the the "seach" button sometimes are temporally unavalible.

Besides THis is just a faster way of finding the answer instead of searching through a bunch of bull crap or forsale lists.

People who knows the answer post it, Dumb people who tries to stand out, post non-funny "search" commits. Read the title, its not apart of the question.

agreed also don't forget about your engine management setup a fmu, missing link, fuel pump, injectors, etc. basically it all about what hp goal your looking for.
is this your daily driver keep in mind that if it is. also a turbo timer would be important to keep your turbo's lifespan longer.
i agree with funintegras the search option sometimes doesn't work so why not help a fellow ht member with his or her problem. this is honda-TECH.com not postasmartasscomment.com

You do realize there is a way to search for threads in only one section aka the tech forums and not even pull up threads from the classified section?

Besides every car is different depending on how you want to go, there are propably at least 100 different set ups you can run on the exact same car.

As for "Us Idiots" who say search all the time, ever think were sick and tired of people asking the same questions all the time expecting everyone to just spoon feed them information?

Now, http://www.homemadeturbo.com is a good site for information as well and the lists I've seen are the basics you'll need with some extra parts. Search a bit and you'll see what I mean.

first off, as someone has already stated you need to LEARN how to use the search function. Then you can go off and find what you need......no amount of replies to this thread will give you all the info you need to turbocharge your vehicle. From your reply it sounds like you need to learn the BASICS of turbocharging, which you should probably be SEARCHING for. IF YOU WANT SPOON FED GO BUY A KIT AND BLOW UP YOUR CAR/WASTE MONEY....no0b!! people here CAN and WILL help you, but you need to ask more specific questions.
