Default Re: Junkyard Turbo Kits (H.crx-si)

Ahh just my specialty!

This was taken from Honda Tuning magazine April issue. I couldnt find it online so i decided to hand type it. They do have a full step install guide in the mag, which is awesome.

<FONT SIZE="4"><FONT COLOR="darkblue">SHOPPING LIST:</FONT> </FONT>
<FONT COLOR="purple">From Local Performance Shop</FONT>
Three 2.23 inch U-bend steel $17
One 2.5 inch 90 degree aluminized bend - $25
One down pipe flange $10
One down pipe gasket $8
One 1G blow off valve flange $10 (1st gen eclipse)
One 1G blow off valve gasket $4 (1st gen eclipse)
One 6mm gasket $3
One turbo-to-oxygen sensor housing gasket $5
One oil return line new $55 used $10 (may have to widen the opening)
One oil return gasket $1
One silicone 2.25 inch to 2 inch reducer hose $18
One foot of rubber 2.25 inch hose - $12 per foot
Nine 2.75 inch heavy duty clamps $2 each
One 3 inch heavy duty clamp - $2.50
One 1G blow off valve $90 new $5-$40 used (1st gen eclipse)
One 2G T25 Turbo - $25-$150 (2nd gen eclipse)
One 1G oxygen sensor housing $10-$20 (1st gen eclipse)

<FONT COLOR="purple">From Local Salvage Yard</FONT>
One HF CRX manifold $20 to $50

<FONT COLOR="purple">Local Auto Parts Store (pep boys/autozone)</FONT>
One 60 inch long .25 hard line $1.69
One 1/8 inch NPT male to male fitting $1.49
One 1/8 inch NPT femal "T" fitting $2.19
One 1/8 inch male to 1/4 inch pipe female fitting $1.49
One 1/2 inch ID rubber hose, 1 foot $1.99
One can of high temp engine paint $3.99
Four quarts of oil $9.16
One oil filter $4.15

They did mention the adapter plate in the article, but not on the list, so here is the specs on that, word for word from the article.

Using the HF manifold as a guide, center it on a piece of .75 x 4 x 5 inche flat steel plate that is roughly big enough to mate the header and turbo. Mark and center punch the four holes on the manifold. Drill and tap with a 10mm x 1.25mm tap .5 inch deep for all four holes, but do NOT go all the way through. If you prefer you can skip this process and weld the plate directly to the manifold. But i know some people dont have welders. Here is a pic of the adapter plate


<FONT COLOR="purple">Tools Needed</FONT>
Basic mechanics tools - Sockets, wrenches, etc.
Grinder
Tape measure
Center hole punch
Die Grinder
Drill pess/hand drill
Drill bits
2 inch hole saw
Welder

The least we spent was $225 & the most was about $560
