D-series turbo? Can someone help?
 
Hey what's up everyone. My name is Bobby and i'm new to this forum. I was referred by someone at a local car performance shop.

About 2 months ago i bought a green 01 Civic EX 4dr. I added a Bomex style kit, my 17" rims off of my old car, altezza tailights, and an AEM short ram intake.

I thought about just adding basic bolt-ons like exhaust and headers but i'm starting to change my mind and go towards making a turbo kit.

I haven't had any luck finding a turbo setup for a D17 or finding any help on the other two forums that i am on.

Does anyone know of how to build a custom D17 turbo setup? If so, please help. Thanks

You should probably keep details like that out of HMT. If it doesn't make your car faster, we don't give a ----, especially when they're tasteless wastes of money.

However, you've at least made 1 good decision. If you can't find the information you need to turbo your d-series (probably the most boosted engine on this site...) then there's no way in hell you'll be able to turbo your car. Look in the FI section... search the many pages & pages of info. Also look in the "turbo projects".

It can't be done. The intercooler won't fit behind the space-shuttle body kit, and your turbo won't spool when you have altezza tail lights. Fix it and then come back.

---- my altezza's flew out because of the turbo kit I made from HMT's research. I tried to rebolt them in and it still didnt hold. I put my stock ones back and no problems. They just dont mix.

I know it's possible to turbo it because i've heard of 2 people in my area who have the same car who custom made their turbos.

I just don't know them personally so i can't ask them.

And yeah maybe my car is a little rice but who gives a ----. I want to make it fast thats why i came here. I've seen some fast ------ ricers out here. But i hate the JDM look that's why i didn't stick with that look.

I'm just looking for someone who can help me with a turbo setup or give me some tips on what i need to get

South Beach or some other fag-ville.

If you're too much of a bitch to search this site, then you should stick to your body kit faggotry.
