Civic turbo help
 

I have a 99 EX, and Im gettin ready for boost, i got alot of the stuff Im going to need, front mount IC, turbo dsm injectors, HKS SS BOV, exhaust manifold, and a garrett T3 turbo, but the turbo is a E3ZE out of a 20th anniv. mustang, now is anyone fimillar with this turbo? I dont know if it will fit or anything like that? Can someone lend an opinion or two?

Re:Civic turbo help
 

DO you have a picture of that turbo you could post? And you wouldn't happen to know the A.R of the turbo would you?

Re:Civic turbo help
 

What are your plans for fuel management?

Re:Civic turbo help
 

Yeah, I have pictures of the turbo, I'm new at this post, so I dont know how or even if i could post em. The A.R. number is A.R. .60 M11 and on the hot side the A.R. is A.R. .63 I have plans for fuel management too, I have already B&M fuel press. reg., aem fuel rail, dsm 1st gen turbo injectors (450??)and im gettin a Holley 97GPH electric fuel pump...please give me all the advice and help ya can, I'm pretty well rounded for knowing my D16Y engine, but turbo is a whole new universe to me

Re:Civic turbo help
 

That seems a little big if you ask me.It will boost,but way at the top end.If i were you I would put that thing on ebay and with the money you make off it get a 42/48 t3.If you have a junk yard near by try to find a t3 off a 80s model Saab 900 or anny 80s Volvo.Those are perfect for a d16.

i would stay away from the B&M FPR, it makes my fuel pressure bounce at 45psi no matter what is going on.

Re:Civic turbo help
 

I think the turbo is a good size, but I didn't see any way of manageing those injectors. ???

your going to need a vafc or something of the like. Go with a 42/48 turbo as they said, you can keep that manifold and make good top end with not a great deal of lag

Re:Civic turbo help
 

Should I got with the AEM FPR since its a better FPR and its a direct bolt on to the AEM fuel rail? And about the injectors, I dont understand what you mean about manageing the injectors? Im getting a new fuel pump, i have a FPR, hi-flow fuel rail, and im getting resistor boxes for the injectors, and after i collect all my pieces, I will be investing money into getting a hondata EMS...

Re:Civic turbo help
 

All that other stuff is worthless unless you have something to control the injectors. You can't run boost without it. Until you get the Hondata installed with some large injectors, you can't run boost. I'm not sure if you know this already. It sounded like you were planning on running boost with just a pump and a fuel rail. Just making sure you are on the right track, but it sounds like you might be with the Hondata. :)
