hi recently bought the car listed above from a guy in Japan, looking for a turbo for it, anyone know where i might source one? Or suggest any reputable custom turbo company.

Regards

 

You just recently bought it and already are looking for a turbo Wow. Just do some research in the forced induction forum, they should be able to help you out.

 

yes please do some research first. Drag 3 kit + hondata = (good but not the best).

 

top fuel

 

all motor..

 

all motor

 

Good choice to go turbo.
If your a Turbo Novice, then go Drag III. If you know what your doing, then piece together a kit with better components. The forced induction forum will help you out a lot.

i'll tell you right now, i have turbo on my car and I think its alright. But, if I could go back and do it all again, I'd definetely go all motor. You can make a sick all motor car if you have a lot of $$$

 

::sigh::

 

check out http://www.ks-motorsports.com for some good turbo deals, if you want drag go through importparts.com.

 

I second that.

VTEC=NA design. Sounds like u're setting up for your car for drag racing, but I do think...turbo charging a TypeR engine is...I dunno what to say. I'd rather go for a GSR and turbo it.

Coz TypeR motor is running such a high compression, and now u wanna turbocharge it and then u have to lower the compression by a lot. Also TypeR is well known as great cornering machine. Go drag racing with it is kinda a waste IMO.

Just my 2cents. No offense to any TypeR drag racers here.

 

so your saying a turbo is only for dragging....

wow. the rice in this one is strong.

 

gonna have to go with the quoted quote and that is the top fuel kit, if you have the cash go for it, i was quoted 5g's without intercooler.

 

yes, when i wanted a top fuel kit, they quoted me like 4.5g's. Too much for me, but i know its high quality

 

yes when u have lots of $$$$$ the reason i'll go turbo is i only have so much to spend, the same amount money i spend on turbo i'll get a lot more HP then go for NA. true type-r should go for NA but just too much $$ to spend to get same HP like turbo.
for those who think turbo is for drag for u, type-r is a great car but just need a bit more power. may be more torque that's what the car need..

 

Not really but most of the time ppl use that for drag/show .

 

There are a plenty of ITR/CTR turbo cars in Option2 video's...all Circuit racing of course.

 

Yeah any D16, B16/18 are lack of torque. To me there is less trouble sticking with NA. I've thought of going turbo on my Civic. Budget is quite limited though I can save $$ on labor coz I do my own work on my car. Once I thought of all minor tunings, ECU setup, coolant/oil temp, brakes efficiency then I thought, maybe it's not worth it.

So I kept using my stock motor and put in SRR 4.7 final gear set into my tranny. And I love this setup in auto-x events especially during on/off throttle. That's what turbo kit can't give.

Maybe big HP # doesn't mean that much to me so far. Even if I have money, I'll still stick with NA all the way on any Honda motor. When turbo doesn't come stock.

 

I know that. I've seen Top Fuel many many times at least.
