Default Finished turbo civic project***Now with epic failure***
Well, I finally got the car finished and street tuned. It's a 89 civic hatch. B18b1 motor. Car was tuned by Cornbred Tuning out of Indiana. http://www.cornbredtuning.com/ This is my DD so drivability was key. It was tuned at 10lbs. Should just be over 200hp, maybe 225hp.
Here's the turbo:

Thanks for the nice comments guys. I would guestimate that it would run a mid to low 13. I don't think it would dip into the 12's yet, maybe after I upgrade the injectors and crank up the boost a bit. 450cc FTL

Real Greddy type s. The link above shows better pics and info on the turbo. It's a Garrett T3/T4 with a .60 ar comp and .82 exhaust housing. Full boost at about 4500rpm.
