As far as I know of what I need to complete the kit, I have a 1995 civic coupe2dr ex(D16z6) I am not sure all what I need for the setup, as far as I know i think I need:
Manifold
Turbo
oil return lines
charge pipes
down pipe
Turbo timer
boost controller
FMU
Intercooler

if there is anything else or somthing I dont need on this list criticism would be awsome, thanks guys.

You'll need a few misc things that'll add up and I'm too lazy to type it out but I would personally ditch the fmu and go with uberdata.

There is this web site called www.homemadeturbo.com You should check out.... https://www.homemadeturbo.com/turbo%5Fprojects/ there you will find all kinds of turbo write ups, what works what doesnt. This is how most people start off. I saved you some time and found this... https://www.homemadeturbo.com/turbo_projects/d16z6/
you should check it out to.
also there is a forum on www.homemadeturbo.com which I see you found. From there you can talk to different people who have the same ideas and concerns that you do. With that said...

Yes Im being a smart ***. You should look around and research every last little detail, and thats what you are doing. Good job. Look all around the site, and see what works and what is useless. There is lots of **** on the web site which helps when creating a bad *** turbo set-up, its just a reminder of all of the ----- that you will be getting with a swoosh sound from under your hood...
(good justification)

Read, Read, Read, Post, Read, Read, Think and then Read some more and then build your kit.

BTW, go with the hack/injectors and you probably don't need a boost controller, turbo timer or FMU. And there's a boatload of nuts and bolts and washers and gaskets...

You will need an oil feed line and decide on a wastegate (internal vs. external) and some gauges would do wonders.

ty to all,..I was asking because. the projects differ, i summerized what was in the d16z6 projects, but i still wanted to know what is a nesecity and what I need to run a good fast spooling turbo kit, thus the reason for me to post on the forum, which I so convienently found.

And be patient... I'm starting my install tonight, almost 9 months after I decided to turbo and at least 8 months of research (and being lazy). :P

It's not hard to put a kit together, but you should really take the time to understand what you're doing as well...

umm, I was under the impression this forum was for help purposes if you don't want to comment about somthing that will help me then I don't see the point in making remarks that slander somone. I am here because this is an acredited site for tech help and enviornment. I did research and yet again as I have stated before the projects differ, therefore Me posting this thread
