Default New to Hondas. New to Hondatech!!

New to Hondatech, I've known the site for a while but finally joined I have a 94 civic EJ1 with a B18C swap in it. Got it about 3 weeks ago with 93k on the body and 64k on the motor. Ride is pretty sweet, its really my first car and I love it lol I plan on doing some things to it to make it mine over time and I know this site is where all my questions can be answered. I also plan on maybe putting a little turbo in there later on this year prob something small to be pushing 250-280whp..nothing too drastic since its my daily.

Just make sure the turbo parts are quality. Don't do eBay!

im sure you can as long as you dont jump on the first one that comes up... check out andysautosport.com they have some stuff that might be in your price range. i know i looked there for a d16 turbo kit for my CRX and it was like 1200 for everything.

Sure can, some might need to be used, stay with a log mani the first time. Cheaper and pretty much won't every break. If you are patient and shop around for good deals you could stay under $1500

Best advice is check different places and search for deals. Check different forums to see if someone's selling parts you need, check Craigslist, and if you can't find anything from a P2P website, shop around everywhere so you can find the best deal for new. Also, if I were you, I'd piece my own kit together. You'll get to pick out each piece of it and it also may be cheaper if you do it right. Good luck!
