C'mon, a B-series conversion into any EK is basic stuff...
If your mech needs help with that are you sure he's the right man for the job?

Re turbo...
How silly did you want to go...
Here's a bolt-on setup I did way back in 2000...

& there are 1000's of others out there too...

lol, if your mechanic has asked then he's got issues.
They are prob one of the most easiest things to turbo
I know of quite a few b series turbos ;)

Yeah true da :thumbsup:

If they have to ask there not experienced enough to do the conversion!!

Even Hannys who don't touch turbo setups still know the principle things

yeh but a conversion in a EG is easier then a EK if its just a d16 one u need to stuff around with it with wiring etc. putting the engine is easy

and putting anything into a eg is easy...

however i wouldnt b confident handing my keys over... saying that i dont give anyone my keys i rather do it myself..

there are hundreds of threads on how to do this i think u should search a bit

Dude my previous motor was a d15b4 which was a twin carb piece of crap. I had to pretty much change everything to get my b16a2 working. I couldnt imagine a harder d-b series conversion than that. Still did it myself tho

atleast if u have a DECENT half cut its fairly straight forward u will need a fuel tank/pump, and lines for what u did.

i was refering to a breeze... civic lol and same thing to what u have done.

man bad thing is ive always learn the hard way but to tell you the truth as much heart ache everything put me threw i wouldnt take it back because i know alot more because of it. always learning from my own mistakes.

The are shit talkers on many forums but ozhonda has always helped me out soo much in the past, even today when i was trying to figure out my ignition issue and found out my dizzy rotor was stuffed. Car sounded like i snapped the timing belt and bent a valve but its only going to be a max $50 fix. thanks to the great help from members of ozhonda.

hope that wasnt a jab.... ive done it aswell... ive got a few teething problems but its interesting to get other pov because thats how u learn...

especially because in WA there isnt alot of turbo hondas and i dont know any turbo da9s in WA either... but the problems i have is because of the environment this is why im asking...

atm the best time to test the cars duribility is now because of the heat etc.
