you must be thakid that can't read.
check out the turbo projects, tech projects, and read the stickies at the top.

and on the 6th day god created the search button, it's about as unthouched as your 400 pound sister

you should just go to the turbo projects page and look at the many setups, or i dont know just search or check out the FAQ stikyed to the forum, btw i dont know of a civic that came stock with 11.5:1 compression but it seems very high for boost do you have domed pistons or a crazy milled head, what is ur setup?
