Hey guys

just need some advice on converting my Turbo EG civic back to N/A, just need to know what are the main parts I need just so the car can start and drive.

Below are the specs, pretty much copied and paste the orginal add from when I bought it.

Under the bonnet:
*B16A2 from Honda Civic EM1 with genuine type R rocker cover and oil cap
*Custom Turbo Set up done by performance exhaust center consisting of all brand new parts. nothing bought 2nd hand here...
*custom ram horn manifold which has been HPC coated black.
*gt28rs (disco potato) turbo charger bought new from GCG.
*k&n air filter
*speed flow fittings used throughout for return and feed lines.
*HKS SSQV blow off valve.
*Polished intercooler piping with bar and plate front mount intercooler
*twin scroll dump pipe to a 2.5inch metal cat and 2 1/4 bpipe and cannon muffler.
*exedy sports ceramic clutch
*440cc injectors and walbro fuel pump
*hondata S100 ECU (tuned by adrian at toda au)

You need:
Headers, cat, exahust
Intake arm, air filter
Stock B16A Ecu
You'll need to plug up the turbo drain to sump
Plug up water feeds to turbo
Plug up vacum feed to Bov
Remove T peice from back of block that suppies oil to turbo (maybe supplied from sandwich plate, if so remove it).

Thanks heaps DL001, that was heaps helpful

I have the stock air intake, stock headers, just need to get the rest of the exhaust, cat b pipe and stock axle back.

I might have a spare sump, got another motor lying tho its d15, so not sure if that would fit. if not then I would just plug up the current one.

with the ECU, would I be able to use a p28?

Hey guys

I have pretty much changed my car back to N/A, this is what i've done

put stock headers and full stock exhaust on
remove T peice for Oil Feed Line
put back stock intake arm/box
plugged up oil drain line and redirected water lines.

When I put the stock Ecu in (P30) car doesnt want to start, it will try and turn though seems like the fuel doesnt kick in, but when I put the Hondata back in it starts up just fine

Test drove it with the Hondata and it seems to run ok, just a bit of smoke coming from the headers coz I didnt use sealant when I installed the headers. should be easy fix there. Just want to know why the stock ecu wont work.

any advice would be great.
