Default Going Turbo

Hi!

Firstly i'd like to start by saying Hi, Im new to this forum and im from Over the Pond in the UK, I got a 91 Civic Hatchback Si i-16 which is running a D16A9 engine, im looking to turbo it, i've done a search, but didn't find anything that i felt was relevent, anyone on here attempted to turbo a D16A9 (Twin cam,Non vtec) ??? Also being in the UK, it kinda sucks getting the parts and stuff, but i know a few lads that can get hold of parts n stuff.

Cheers For any help!

Kev

Check out http://www.lovefab.com Cody made my manifold and it's truely an amazing part. Great quality.

Also, see http://www.cheapturbo.com this is where I purchased my turbo.

I choose obviously to piece my turbo kit together myself, custom. You can do the same or you can look in to buying a Greddy turbo kit or even the new Edelbrock turbo kit. The Edelbrock kit has to be the most complete D-series kit on the market today. See http://www.edelbrock.com this kit comes with intercooler, intake, exhaust manifold, turbo, downpipe and pretty much everything you need to get yourself going.

Hope this helps.

Cheers m8! thats come in handy! Also one thing that springed to mind, a m8 had brought to my attention that most US parts won't fit on our cars because ours are right hand drive and urs are left hand drive, will this affect the fitting of any of the turbo kits u guys reccomend? or will they fit just the same as urs? Im gonna re-locate the battery to the trunk to free up a little space aswell, so im looking for a battery box aswell!
