what will my turbo get me?
could i have some input as to what expected output i will have from my turbo set up when she's running?
i have the euro model CRX with the D16A9 which is a DOHC 130bhp
install:
T3 XS power
stainless XS power manifold with external wastegate
38mm wastegate with vented outlet port to under the sump
large BOV, not sure of specs
2.5" cooler pipeing with 4" thick cooler
2.5" full 304 ss exhaust system with twin outlet
8.8:1 wiseco pistons with moly rings
eagle H-beam rods
block guard
standard but new head gasket and bolts (try getting a meatal gasket for this car, impossible in the uk)
skimmed block and head faces
the top of the engine is 100% standard as i have run outa money so could you suggest any cheap mods, like the h22 throttle body, to increase the top ends breathing?
also if your based in the uk, any desent shops that can chip at an affordable price, struggling to find them at the mo?!?!
i've tried attaching a picture but mite not work, if you dont like the looks then dont slag it as you dont have to drive it!
and yes the R has been put on the decals saying racing (above the rear wheel arch), at the time of the pics relocating the filler neck was a problem (more money) so it wasn't on for a few days!!
well hopefully give me another week and she should be running for the second time in the 4 years of building her!!
wish me luck, i need alot of it!!

Another suggestion...sell the ricer crap on ebay! You can get more money togther for POWER not looks. BTW, all that extra plastic will acually slow you down.
Otherwise, the car acually looks really nice, alot more togther that alot of the junk I see around Denver, that's for sure.
Sorry to rip on the body kit thing, there are just WAY to many ricers where I come from.

if you live in the uk then you'll understand the reason y there is plastic everywhere and not such powerfull engines, we have these shitty insurance regs that mean 17-20 year olds get bent ova the ins desk and fucked my a big black ****!!! then you ignore them and spend the next 6 years in the nick having the same thing happening but this time there are 100 big black *****!! so i keep away!!
also there is nothing, i mean nothing for the D16 in this country and no knowledge in the circles i know about non-standard turbos, gota teach it myself or ask you guys!
just wondered if anyone would hazard a guess as to what sorta power im pushing?
