Default would it be hard to

if you're confident enough to make your own manifold, a 5 cyl is no different than any other.

Yeah, just make a log manifold for it. I'm guessing your OEM manifold is cast iron, so it'd be tough welding something onto that and actually having it hold up. The hardest part about it is gonna be getting some half-decent fuel management I think...

Well if i do a 5-8psi boost nothing is really ganna need a massive tune would it? also i had to take off my headers to replace the damn o2 sensor and i was woundering... the pipe looked like a stainless steel piping so if i cut in and weld on a adapter to fit a t3/t4 turbo of an mx3 its like a IHI rbc5 so im guessing its like a crysler t3 7 psi waste gate? so what you think

yeah alot of acuras have 5 cylinder motors. they also have a v6 thats not turned sideways like the accord and other v6, its positioned like rwd would be but its fwd. i dont know what kind of transaxel it had. i saw it in the junkyard.
