haha good job catching that, cuz i didn't. oh well. that would be nice though.

Thanks!
 

Thanks, guys!

I know my car is a very veak thing, and it has a small engine but the people on the streets are amazed when they hear the sound of the BOV...

" what? turbo in a civic? " ;D ;D

I will try to set tha target AFR to 12:1, because I dont van to melt the pistons...
My 240cc injectors are not enought? It can supply 125 HP on the D16Z6...
I don't want to see a broken connection rod.. so I will very happy when my car outs 100WHP (~130HP on the mainshaft)

Thanks for the tip, guys! I will search for bigger injectors...

But I plan to replace some parts... D15 mainshaft, connection rods with pistons, D16Z6 head...

The tuning can starts, but it can't finished!

Re: Finished my boosted 1.4 civic
 

YES! Not only I have 1.4 civic boosted...
Other people can play with it too... ;D

Re: Finished my boosted 1.4 civic
 

holy ---- that turbo is tiny!! That little thing can't be making a whole lot of power....it looks like its for a mini bike or something.......lol

Re: Finished my boosted 1.4 civic
 

That small thing is on the 1.8T Audi, and 1.8T Seat... But maybe you have right... When I rev the car over 5000RPM the boost starts to decrease.. so the turbo is small or my engine isn't generate enought exhaust gas to spin the turbo...

I plan to change it to a bigger one.... :y

nice to see more projects on the d14's :)


i just got my new turbo and will post some pic's soon :)

Re: Finished my boosted 1.4 civic
 

thats awesome setup... if that turbo came from a 1.8t i think thats a KO3 turbo and it starts boosting around 2200. looks nice man! tune it, get some bigger injectors, and dyno it. i want to see how much it makes.

Re: Finished my boosted 1.4 civic
 

Yes, I use the KKK 03 turbo. But it starts to boost at 2700 in my 1.4i... But the header is a little bit huge.. With the std. D15 header it was quicker.. With that it starts at 2000RPM... But at high RPM ranges it was a restriction.. Yesterday I have done a boost controller.. It works fine. I set the boost to 0,5 Bar. But at high RPM (6000) the boost was 0,3Bar...

Maybe may car can't drive that K03 enought...
