Because they are mass produced, mass marketed, a mass of competition and a mass of users. You cant say that about kits here.

Hey man, we have turbo’ed many Honda’s and custom built kits and modifications for many cars, and we built from starch the fastest fwd turbo Honda in Victoria, and soon the fastest NA (We hope)

The main question you have to ask your self is how much money you want to spend.
We can custom built turbo kits from for a very low budget kits to full blown race prepared $100,000 setups it all depends on reliability and quality, but you get what you pay for.

There’s plenty of options available it depends how serious you are, asking a simple question like “I want to turbo my car” is such a very board question.

Have a search on the internet and build your general knowledge, but in general you will need the following things

Turbo manifold
Turbo (with internal wastegate or get a external manifold setup)
Larger injectors
Hondata ECU
Intercooler
Cooler pipes
Dump pipe from the turbo to the exhaust
Oil feed / water feeds for the turbo
Oil drain

As for US kits not fitting that’s kinda crap ! they do but nothing is BOLT on everything needs to be custom a little...most us kits are great apart from the engine management side of things,,, which is the most important item in the setup. You need a standalone fully programmable ECU such as Hondata, not a crude piggyback device

You can safely run 6psi daily driven even 7 8 on the stock motor, but eventually you will need to build your engine. Once your engine is build the sky is your limit as long as your turbo setup / fueling system can support the power your after.

Feel free to give me a call and im more than happy to sit down and talk about options and explain things as required, or feel free to PM or Post here and ill answer the questions to the best of my ability.

Hope that information helps

Hey man, everything Age just said is fully correct, if you need any advice call and yeah as he said he’s more than happy to help, considering your in QLD I would recommended you see nick at APC-racing he’s one of my Hondata dealers and his workshops is second to none !

He also has the first Honda into the 10sec passs, as for your crxaustralia login email me your username and ill fix it up, and a description of whats wrong and ill fix it up.
