Sorry about the wait fellas I've just been a little busy with my buddy's car the last few days now. Here's some pics bitch!

Here's a pic of the part of the "block" you have to grind off to fit the DSM turbo in there. Really not part of the block it's just one of the motor mount taps. BTW I have never had a problem running without a front mount. PS. this grind job was cleaned up after pic.

Here's where the turbo would sit if you just tryied to hook it up to factory downpipe. The downpipe is perect except it needs to be bent towards the driver's side so that the turbo won't sit on top of it (what I did)

Here's how I did the oil lines. The turbo I got came with the lines attached so I cut them and clamped some hose from napa around them. Worked very well and never had a problem with oil leaks.

Also I did the grind job with a angle grinder I bought from walmart then returned it the next day.

So you're running factory exhaust? Or just factory downpipe? Any other mounting things you had to perform to get the factory downpipe to bolt up? Did you have to weld a flange on it? Is this setup that perfect that it just pieced right in after bending to the drivers side?

Can you also please explain to us your expiernced with the T25, 14b, and TD04h (I think that was the other one u mentioned??). Inquiring minds want to know.

Good job of using the angle grinder and returning it. I have a couple of them, so if anything I would just keep adding to my overpopulated power tools family. I'm really waiting to see how well these guys do with a chippped setup.

Since I got my welder I am just waiting until I have some time to weld an exhaust up that I made from some scrap exaust pipes I got from behind a exhaust shop around here . I am running a cheap *** axle back exhaust with 3in muffler right now. I am getting a stock rsx muffler next week and welding it up there next week to keep that silent sound. Withe the 3 different turbos I really couldnt say wich one I liked the best. The td04 (eclipse 1st gen auto) had full boost at around 2500 and died of around 6k, it really wasnt a problem because all you had to do was shift a little early and it was cool. A little bad on highway trips (instant boost above 3k even in 5th gear) but it was great for the city. I tried the 14b next (1st gen manual) and it was pretty good. Felt a little sluggish compared to the little guy (tdo4) but was great when I really punched the gas. Full boost (10psi) at aroun 3300 and ran great until redline. The t25 is what I have now and I think it rides the best. It's basically right between the other two. Highway driving is easier to stay out of boost and it runs very good on the streets. I think the td04 really shouldnt be used unless you dont do any highway driving and the t25 drives pretty much like a gst. The 14b is for that person who likes to burn the road up everywhere. Sorry for the long post but I like to be thorough. For the downpipe I cut the factory flange off and flared the pipe and put a steel gasket about 1/4in thick on and bolted it up to the dsm O2 housing.

Also if anyone needs a map for the whole chipping the I have a couple I got sent to me about 2 weeks ago. One is for the p28 (yes you'll have to replace your ecu and get the p28 chipped) and the other is for the accord ecu.
