My 1st setup, turbo 86 accord
 
This is my first turbo setup, I'm running 8psi on the stock BS(A20) block. I've converted the car from pre OBD to OBD1 and am running a chipped P75 with the ostrich and Crome pro. I'm running a 92-93 accord distributor with a custom adapter, made from a stock efi distributor and a 1/4" thick piece of steel, and the ignitor is replaced with a solid state circuit to trigger the msd. I'm no longer have A/c, it hasn't worked in two years since I was too lazy to fill it. I kept the power steering though, it required me to reroute the high pressure line and to move the reservoir a little. The engine bay still needs to be straightened/cleaned up some, but it runs good and is almost tuned.

T3 turbo (turbine .48 a/r, 0.68 trim)(compressor 0.42 a/r, 0.62 trim)
custom manifold
SS autochrome wastegate w/8psi spring (tial replacement already ordered from LSD :y)
Audi Bosch BOV
intercooler 25"x6"x3"
2.5" charge pipes
3" down pipe
full 3" exhaust
3" magnaflow muffler

Close up of turbo, manifold, and wastegate during installation.

Shot during fitment of the the intercooler. You can also see where I cut half the bumper off so the intercooler would fit, I welded in a piece of 1/8" thick 1.5" square tube to make up for the piece i cut out.

Couple shots of the engine bay. (Don't mind the missing tranny I was doing the clutch that day)

I miss my A20 hatch, your setup is ------- awesome though!

Did you convert to EFI a while ago or for the turbo setup? or did you just swap a BS block into an EFI car
