Re: 84 Civic HB ZC/D16A1-T build 56k
 

It's not bad i like it the way it is, i was going to swap a d16y7 head on the d16a1 block for more compression but it is a waste of time. Right now the car is having some trouble to accelerate under loads or fast revs. Might be the MSD 6AL ignition module RPM flutuate alot and won't pass 4000.

yea doesn't work too well with a bunch of machining.

So we finally got time to make the new turbo header "The Splog" Hoping to install it weekend after thanksgiving, going for 6-7psi untuned. If i can find someone to street tune it we want 12 psi max, then dyno it to 20psi

I am not entirely happy with your build.

Re: 84 Civic HB ZC/D16A1-T build 56k
 

Why? What do you expect this homemadeturbo

Re: 84 Civic HB ZC/D16A1-T build 56k
 

It's mostly that gay ass nose-piece, and FMU. :'(

Re: 84 Civic HB ZC/D16A1-T build 56k
 

i just looked through all of the pics and i cant find an FMU. the wastegate kinda looks like one

Re: 84 Civic HB ZC/D16A1-T build 56k
 

i didnt see any oil lines either... turbo wont like that much if not gettin the lube love! :3 .. other than that build looks good. i had a 85 civic , and loved that car! swapped in a 87 crx si motor swap, fun little cars .

Re: 84 Civic HB ZC/D16A1-T build 56k
 

I think JD was confused by complex's signature, and mistook that delta gate for an FMU.

Only thing I'd change is the way that FMIC's inlet is. The 3 90's in a row won't help in any way. The reduced pressure drop will be more noticable with more boost.
