Default D series boost with A/C?

Anybody running a turbo and keep your a/c intact? What manifold/turbo/downpipe combo did you use? What snags did you run into? Post up some pics if you can, thanks.

There are a couple of kits out there that retain the a/c but they're expensive.

most cast iron manifolds and log manifolds are a/c and p/s compatible. try go-autoworks.com they have a kit for sale thats just under 2 grand thats a/c compatible.

this is willybignut's civic, from clubcivic.com... he's got a boosted d16y8 with p/s and a/c

Pretty much the only turbo you will fit with no problems is a small turbo like a td04 greddy kit. Other than that your going to run into little problems
