95 civic LX 1.5DOHC wants a turbo
 

I want to put a turbo on my civic and would like to know where to start and what to get.

First off, figure out what motor you really have.

turbo, manifold, fuel management, gauges, intercooler, intercooler piping, blow-off valve...lots of hoses ( mostly 1/4 inch), oil supply lines, oil drain lines, boost controller, check valves or missing link.

and that's all off the top of my head...my suggestion is to read the "forced induction" section of the site. it has answers to EVERYTHING you have now, and will have later.

thanks,

Take a look at the turbo projects on this site(all of them) then read the links i give you (about a dozen times) then consider even putting a turbo in your ride. this way you will know what youre getting yourself in to and will know what to do and what not to do. not trying to be rude, i just dont want to hear about another engine that got messed up due to detonation.

there that should get you started, there are plenty of good books out there about turbo setups, but you dont need to read them unless youre turbo obsessed like me.
hey last year i knew nothing about turbos, now i am doing my own turbo setups on my cars and helpine others, this could not have been done without this site and the guy who gave me a ride in his turbo civic 2 years ago, after you feel the torque, you will be hooked on boost, i promise you.
