This kind of post .... Probably a D15 automatic.
For that horsepower and not knowing what brand of turbo is good?

Try stopping by this section and reading through it.

https://honda-tech.com/forums/honda-...sting-3086803/

You can avoid "smart ***" comments by providing detailed information in your initial posts from here on out.

Please respect members wishing to help by taking the time to list or mention crucial information about your car.

FWIW you might want to include what YOU are hearing that's bad about the turbos you've mentioned. Without any other information or sources how can anyone confirm/deny or otherwise provide insight to your concerns?

If you get butt hurt because people want to know more information to actually help you then bye Felicia.
Even your parts list doesn't really help at all.

no one got smart with you... we were trying to help you help us, but instead you're the one that is getting pissy. Instead of me typing this post I could have simply posted a brand and model turbo and bam it would've been done. Now you have to do some research on your own. I can guarantee you there are 50+ threads here with the answer to your question.

the post rules that have been quoted above should be followed regardless, what's the use having multiple people ask details of your proposed build if you could have just informed us all in the first place and saved all this time?

good brand of turbos specifically for a size 6262? i'd have to say Precision, seeing as they're the ones who make that turbo

One of the reasons why it's a rule is precisely this:

I think it would be better for you as the original poster to get the info you seek in a timely manner wouldn't you agree? By providing the requireed information WE THE FORUM can HELP you much more effectively if you provide all the relevant information up front.

And now we have come full circle back to the company that you had expressed reservations about but haven't clarified (2 days later I might add). So what have you been hearing about them?

What engine in the CRX? D-series? B-series swap? K-series swap?
What do you know about turbochargers in general? You do realize that you can make over 800whp on a T3 flanged system, right?
What bearing system do you want to use?

Turbocharger basics - (And yes, you need these, don't say you don't)

Turbochargers: How They Work, and Current Turbo Technology, by EPI Inc.


Turbo Flange Dimensions Measurements Pictures

Everyone from Garrett GTW , Borg-Warner, and Turbonetics and other independent companies make a turbocharger with a 62mm inducer and can make similar power. The differences are subtle, but they are there. You'll find best results from companies that are based from those that make turbos from the OEM.. Which mean Garrett and Borg-warner based turbos.

You also need to look at similar setups as to what they use and what they sized. I'll tell you now, for a relatively usable CRX some street, some drag-strip, a 62mm is hardly needed. It's just the most popular with drag racers who think they need to "grow". 90% of the time, they don't.. ever.

What you may have heard about Precision turbos is true... and not so true. It's really a matter of how the individual used the turbocharger and if it was properly installed, oiled, restrcticted and had it's return line routed. Without the proper equipment, it could be a turbo from The Almighty Himself, and it will still fail.

Start reading the FAQs of H-T's Forced Induction forum to really start to understand what it takes to turbocharge for this goal. Don't make another thread, unless you seriously have your questions written down and are specific. The Tech forums don't take to "shitposting" , talk backs, or anything of the like, so bring your questions, your humility, and be ready to learn. They can really help you... If you allow them to.

Understood. Which again, still opens the door to a lot of turbo options that can work outside 6262.
