hey guys i did search no answer...
i am really thinking bout turbo my zc..i saw some pages on the web of a zc with stock internals running 12psi...i was wondering what everybody is running PSI wise i am doing a custom kit...possiable using a T3 turbo or a TD04 turbo... i want to run 13's on street tires then slicks 12's thinking bout doing JE pistons and rods..what else should i need?

 

if u wanna build ur own turbo u may wanna get some other stuff
i have been doing some research lately for my turbo setup
u might wanna pick up a FMU, a MSD BTM, FPR, inline pump
and have a rechipped ecu to have a nice map for ex Zdyne GOld can get u there!

 

also check out http://www.homemadeturbo.com i think it is.

Greedy also makes a kit. just get the 92-95 civic one and port the exuast manifold

hey guys i was reading that part on the turbo review on the CRX with 12lbs...i was reading bout adding in the T's for the bleed valves? is that party easy to do just tap in the the lines 3 of them then that releaves boost out so the MAP sensor doesnt think it is getting more air?

 

or swap on an obd1 z6 manifold and tbody and run a missing link. better flow and no codes

 

would 12 psi also be safe on a ZC for all around use for track and street? also thanks alot tortex for that response

 

Thats my plan .....Once my ZC motor goes in... its a GReddy 92-95 kit for me with a type 24 FMIC. look for me in the coming weeks. Im running all my oil feed and return lines as well as all gauge line DURING the swap. No need to get all dirty twice

Can you retain you stock A/C if you run a FMIC? Im just curious if anyone has a Turbo ZC with a FMIC - AND WORKING A/C

Thanx.

 

well doesnt seem my car will ever ******* run 2nd motor i put in this one blew a rod.... so this is my 2nd zc

 

<--Is running 7psi daily.

You can retain a/c w/ the FMIC, that is what the Greddy kit is designed for.

Boost the ZC into double digits can be a scary thing. Even with proper engine managment. The D-series Rod threshold is a bit over 200hp.. When boositng 12psi on a 137hp engine, you are getting very close to that mark. I gernaded 1 zc as soon as it hit 14psi.

I like run 9-10psi on D-series motors, they seem to like it.

Hey Pelo.. Thanks, I was just thinkin if i should gut my AC due to the necessary space need for FMIC piping. I'll try to plumb the charge pipes around the AC stuff.

 

hey I have a d15b7... has about 9.2 or 9.6 compression, im running all stock fuel system with a spoon chip, for a b16 in a pm6. I just want to know what u have for fuel to run 9-10 psi on the track.. also.. where is your timing at that boost .. thanks I have a homemade turbo kit. running a 87 crx with a 94 dx motor with hks mainifold to a subura turbo. intercooled and b.o.v. running 5-6 psi i have a msd and coil

I ran 9psi on my ZC with a TD05 turbo and an intercooler...it ran fine until all of my oil decided to go into my down pipe.....

 

My site has loads of pics of a 92-95 install on a ZC, take a look if you want

I am running 6-6.5 at the moment

Still got loads of work to do on the website.

 

i run 10 psi with the greddy kit on my zc with a cartech regulator/fmu and a msd inline fuel pump.
