Default greddy sohc turbo kit fit a DOHC????

i have heard that the SOHC greddy turbo kit can fit a DOHC by just notching the manifold a bit and it'll bolt right up...just wondering if this is true and also if any one had the same setup, thanks

i have seen it used on the b-series, from what i've heard all u have to do is slot the mounting bolt holes on the manifold to fit the b-series.

Well, i dont know about notching the manifold. I compared the two manifolds when i did a b-series swap into my CRX, and i don't think there is any way a D-series manifold will ever easily fit on a B-series. However, i think that if you just spend the few $$ on a B-series turbo manifold, you should be able to adapt the kit.

what you are saying is possible...i did that to use d-series dc headers on my b-series civic. it was a pain in the f_cking as_! i did have to do some portmatching work to the exhaust port and the actual header flange. it worked fine, but...cast iron would be a _bitch to try and do that to. get a b-series turbo manifold from greddy and you could still mount the 15G and then you could always upgrade later, which you will want to. save yourself the trouble unless you want to spend hours grinding.
