There are certain pieces of the kit that are universal and could be used on your Civic, but as-is, no you cannot use it.

only thing that would be usable is the turbo

the manifold and every other part won't even come close to fitting........

Not even that, unless you plan to fabricate.

Will you quit putting hopeless dreams into their heads like that? You think because he has one he's going to fabricate with it? QUIT it, man!!!

well it's probably a t25 flanged, small garrett turbo, of which there are plenty off the shelf parts to make it fit a honda motor.

if you know where to look

VW 1.8T used a KKK K03 turbocharger.

Former B5 A4 1.8T owner, and was always tempted to replace it with something that didn't fall off the torque curve at 4,200...

OP said point blank the kit came with a garrett turbo. I know what the OEM turbos are on those cars (1.8t, 2.0FSI, etc)
