Turboing the 06 civics

Seeing how the exhaust manifold is part of the head & limited room, i wonder how hard is it going to turbocharge the civics or is it even possible at all.

There was a few at SEMA that were turbo'd. From under car, there is A LOT of room for blow dryers. Just looks very deceiving from looking at the top.

I think he may mean the EX and lower models. Looks like someone will make a cast adapter plate and find some way to modify the MAF/MAP system to read boost then it should be like any other turbo setup.

took a closer look of the engine bay today and i realized that...once you take that huge catalytic converter out...there are plenty of room for a decent size turbo.
