Default EBAY TURBO DO OR DONT

hello from spain fellas...i know the whole hmt idea is to make your own turbo and what not...but it is a bit difficult to do specially here in spain...since there are very few places where you could buy parts and what not....any way...i guess the main reason why im posting a new thread is to get some feedback from you all...should i just go ahead and turbo my civic...even though i bought my kit from ebay...and ive seen the luck some people have with this manifold......in theory i still need a bov, fuel management and some injectors...im thinking of getting some dsms 450 seems what everyone recomends...rightas for the fuel management i have no idea what to do...if i should just try to get a repro from a friend that has done some...or i should buy me the hondata s200 and try to learn how to and do it my self...ive also bought some ypc vitara pistons..that i should be getting this week....along with all the gaskets and a nice headgasket...and a timing belt/watter pump belt...
any way i just wanted to know what you guys thought about this whole ordeal...hahahahahah...

PD i have a HF manifold...i guess once the ebay mani goes..ill have to buy me a adapter plate...and set up the hf...but my question is if the ebay turbo doesnt have a internal wastegate how would i set it up with the hf...

You should sell that to some other dumbass and make a decent kit yourself. I would rock the HF manifold over the SSautoshiat any day.

This is HMT, bitch!

www.btnturbo.com has an online catalogue of euro---------pean turbos and the vehicles they came off of. You should figure out what turbo you want to run based off the stickies in the various HMT forums, find a junkyard with turbos for sale, and order whatever else you need from the various HMT sponsors. Most of the sponsors WILL ship internationally, and carry GOOD parts for cheap.

i guess i want to run something that spools at mid rpms...that would be a t28 or t25 right...dont really need to go any higher than 10 psi...ive read plenty of ----....but i just dunno what to do...you all say sell the kit....well thats what i was thinking....but...its difficult to sell that kind of stuff here...these people are more worried about their looks brakes and suspension than anything else.....

the only problem with this build your own kit thing.....is the whole custom work that needs to be done...good example is the downpipe
