Turboing

[J-Rome]

Just wondering where people got it done and how much it was and what u had to do to your engine to get it ready. I have a stock 98 GLi Civic and wanna know if there is a bolt on turbo kit for it. Cheers

u will find most ppl on here do it themselfs, its not a hard thing to do. but yeah there are lots of kits out there for them. go to the forced induction section, there are lots of topics on this

Sell the civic and use the turbo money to buy an S14 or R32.

like evryone said
there are a whole lot of turbo kits out there for u to buy

most these kits are used to run stock internals anyway
so not much engine prep if thats wat ur askin
just fuel pump and injectors

umm labour cost vary..

ECU tuning is vital unless you don't plan on keeping your engine for long term. Also, by spending extra on a tunable ECU and tuning, you can get just as much power using lower boost psi (or more power with the same amount of boost). Something as simple as a Hondata S100 which retails for US$195 will work.

just prep up some nice 4k to 5k for the job .. should be okay ..
minding u with stock internals and only producing 110 hp ish on ur car :p

Everything in your car now is made specifically to run as a n/a engine. If you really are keen in turbo'ing your car i suggest you do it properly otherwise your going to have problems after problems and end up spending more. If your willing to fork out 7-10k this will cover you for;

* turbo kit
* upgrade on internals
* ecu
* full exhaust

and the rest on labour.

You might even need a stronger gearbox that can withstand the power once the turbo is in.

Personally i would just buy a car that is already turbo. Save yourself from hassle, time and money.
