Default Has Anyone used Turbonetics Turbos on there Civics?

I'm looking at this Turbonetics Turbo and was trying to figure out if it was too large a turbo to fit between the block and the A/C Components?

Custom T3 Turbo with T4 B/E Compressor
- Compressor Wheel T04E Super 60 Trim (20579T)
- Bearing Standard Bearing
- Cooling Oil Cooled
- Turbine Wheel F1-62 (21483)
- Turbine Housing T3 4 Bolt Inlet / 5 Bolt Discharge
- Turbine Housing A/R .63

Anyone able to help me figure this out would be great
I'm running a 97 Civic Coupe with D16Y8 Motor

I don't know much about turbos, but the specs look like an ebay turbo. More than likely fitting it with a/c that's prolly a negative.

You should probably steer clear of turbocharging with such questions.

the turbo is only one part of the equation when it comes to a/c compatibility. manifold choice, downpipe size, charge pipe size/routing, etc., all come into play.

I'm looking around for a quality a/c compatible manifold but don't know if a log or a ram style would fit better with the turbo i'm looking at. my goal is 300-350whp
