Hey I am about to buy a 93 civic si hatch again. I am working on getting started on getting some parts for my turbo kit I am gonna make but I wanna know what turbo or intercooler or anything do I need to keep a/c I was thinking about getting the sidemount like eclipse or s13 intercooler and put it where the cold air intake goes on a honda thats what I was told I can do. Is that right? And also will I be able to keep a/c with that setup? I want a ihi rhb5, t3, or t25 thats all something small like that with the hf/std manifold. Please let me know of a way to keep a/c. Thanks

 

You can use any of those turbos, and just about any Ic you want. Its just that everything will have to be custom, For example the exhaust manifold will have to be made to fit perfectly so everything clears, and if you want a specific IC, you may need to route your charge pipes differently since AC will be in the way. It's just a matter of test fits etc. Not to many HMT kits support AC, the Greddy & Apexi kits (also drag) support AC. you may want to look into those.
