Default New guy!

Hi guys, my name is Alex, I am 18 years old, and I am from Brampton, Ontario in Canada.

I am new here, I found out about this site from a friend, I told him I am thinking of going turbo, so he told me about this site, I have a 1996 Honda Civic EK4 H/B the original motor is a D16Y7 but I just purchased a B18B1 power plant for the car picked it up for $500 but it's auto, so my plan is to convert it to a manual 1st then add a T3/T4 turbo charger. So if any of you have done a Set-up similar to what I want to make, please help me out, if you have tips, and suggestions? I am really new to this, I am more of a N/A guy but decided to go Boost ... so if you can list some of the things that I will be needing on making a Turbo B18B, and if your in my part of the world, can refer me to some places that have parts cheep and good quality ... okay I guess that's all!

Again I am glad to be here, and hope we will have much to chat about!...

Cheers...

-Alex

the motor is, that's why I got it so cheep, the guy put a Turbo Sir in his Integra, I was there, and I offerd him $500 for the whole set up he said ok, cause the b18b's sell for like $1000 down here auto or manual, so no biggie I just have to convert the motor to a manual tranny, my buddie sayd I need a few parts but I forgot what they are...

I'm going to go with my usual reply:

Research is the key to success. Please search before asking, most likely your question has already been answered in an older thread. Goodluck
