Got a greddy turbo on my 07 Civic Si and as the topic title suggests...i do not yet have the proper spark plugs or a blow off valve so...what could happen?

What could happen? Detonation and compressor surge, respectively.

 

both are VERY BAD. not a good idea.

 

EDIT: The air needs somewhere to release.

Why do a half-assed job? Don't expect any sympathy on your next thread: "HONDA SUX - MY K20 BLEW UP!"

If you're going to do something, do it right.

 

^^^LoL for half-assin. Nothing good ever comes out of that. try to go cheap, you will pay in the long run.

 

This is the first car I've owned. I had a Blazer before the Si and a Ranger before that. I know virtually nothing about turbos. I had no idea that i needed colder plugs and I certainly didn't know that the turbo kit didn't come with a blow-off valve. I'm not "trying to go cheap" I'm just turbo-tarded. The plugs are in now and the blow-off valve is on the way. thanks anyways...
