85 civic sedan (updated)
 
Well I have been collecting parts for waaay too long and its about freakin time I put this turbo on. I already worked bugs out after the initial motor swap/fi conversion so it wasnt much of a stretch to get this thing back to its baller status after sitting in the garage for the past few months (yeah i'm kind of lazy) Much thanks to turbohf for answering a lot of random questions on aim and my dad for helping with the charge pipes/gas welding nearly everything.. And of course all you guys willing to post things up so others can learn from it - thanks a lot. Anyways heres my setup so far-

89 d16a1 engine/tranny from a teg, all the wiring in the car was from the integra as well
t3 off a 89 or 90 saab (still dont know exactly what it is but it says .54 on there somewhere)
hf manifold
adaptor plate
38mm tial wg, 8.7 psi spring
tuner toys oil lines
1g bov
downpipe and ic pipes are all 2.5 bends
open dp for now
home depot couplers
converted to obd1 running crome on a P06 ecu
dsm 450s
some basemap for now (ill be easy on it)
autometer boost gauge
arp headstuds and new honda head gasket
stage 1 act clutch

I just hope that oil drain is ok, the whole mani/plate/turbo combo sits a lot lower than I ever thought it would :o
