Does Any member in ozhonda knows whats appropriate... for the dc5typeR talking turbo wise..? where could i start? and is it worth it?
I think avo in melb has done one...
i have this honda tuning magazine with a full feature of a dc5r turbo ! 320kw atw!! in america
there a plenty of turbo kits in america, such as a hks, cybernation or greddy turbo kit.
it should be enough to give a wrx a run for its money.
or go the whole cog[custom], and build up the engine with a big turbo.
and should be hanging around m3s or evos.. hehehe
depends on money,
for more info go to clubrsx plenty of plentiful turbo dc5s
Yes AVO do have a kit
Yeh turboing the dc5 is easy... one in perth and one in melbourne.
Should also look at the Jackson racing supercharger kit for them. I can tell you from experience, Its worth it :)
its worth it if ur a complete nutter about gettin more power, and jst have a passion for major power gains, otherwise dont bother.
You don't have to be a nutter, you can just be after a more drivable car. I own a supercharged type r, i have torque from 1500 rpm ... and I mean torque. Makes the car alot more pleasurable to drive in traffic, all in all, well worth the investment madeQuote:

Awd would be a nasty conversion... even transferring the HRV platform would not be easy. Turboing can be done cheaply, but it could also be done properly for less than the coversion cost to AWD...
i beg to differ...Quote:

if ur only after a pleasurable daily driver, y dont u jst buy a euro and save urself the money
lol sorry I meant upgrading to like an STI etc.
On the topic of power, I'd do it because
1) bang for buck upgrade
2) be different from everyone else
3) keep the car i love plus adding more mods to make it 'perfect'
and ofcourse.. turn it into a SLEEPER!
