Default Going turbo any good cheap tricks help?

Sorry I' am a true N/A man so had to ask in here cause I not really sure on D series stuff..... anyway I sold my buddy a 89 Civic Si I put a Dohc ZC now I going to put a Turbo on it just a small one like a T25-28 something like that since the motor is stock for now. Just wondering is there any cheap way of doing injectors form another car and a fuel pump? This car is all low low budget so would like to keep the cost down. Thanks Rob

you can use injectors from a turbo eclipse/talon. and for a fuel pump, walboro makes one for like 100 bux.

The bluetops are what your looking for (450 cc). As for the fuel pump your stock on is fine. I been using a stock pump making 225hp @ 12 lbs cfor over 2 years no problem.

i have dsm black tops with custom o rings and seals.
if you got blue tops, you'd still need to get a resistor box, same goes for black tops. you can get the resistor box off a crx because they have them stock. in all honesty, you're going to want more power once you're boosted, so i don't think a t-25 or 14b will suffice. but if you think it will by all means go for it.

14b turbo's are like <100 dollars. you can make yourself a really good setup working with a 14b. just make sure that ****'s not blown. and for everyone about to come here and say "14b's are a POS get a 57 trim," you can make good power off a 14b, you just gotta know how.

or just get a 50 trim

No need for a resistor box as your car already comes equipped with one.

just get a good basemap made for it first, i would just max out the stock map sensor, the 14b doesnt move alot of air so that would put you around 200whp ish.
