I am wanting to turbo my 99 civic si with a gsr block and b16 head. I want to do this as cheap as possible and still have good stuff. Looking for 300 whp at 10 to 11 psi on stock internals.....is it possible?
where should i look for cheap components?

 

Egay but ya get what ya pay for, your not gonna reach 300 cheap though man, I need a good turbo, intercooler, external wastegate, BOV, all the goody's, also try the classifeid fourms, people sell good ---- here

 

it can be done (300hp) but your going to need a fat turbo and good fuel. get a t3/t4 mang. dont be cheap on your turbo. this is like your third setup isnt it? get a precision turbo, their fucken sexy.

 

No ---- but if he wants his turbo to last, he should get one

 

lol....yeah unfortunatly it is

 

Who cares how many setups you've had, keep doing it till you get it right. I'm glad to see your getting rid of that worthless charger.


Just get a turbonetics or a garrett T3/T4. The turbo is the most important part of the kit so invest the money once and do it right.

 

thats kinda what i was trying to say, he should invest in some good ----. hes determined i like that.

 

ok, i have the manifold and the downpipe lined out, and i plan to get a tial wastegate, what should i do about an intercooler...this seems to be the most asked about thing....searching gave me many results, but nothing agrees.
how big do i really need?
