Default Glad to be a Member of HMT.

Hey guys, I'm Rex. I just wanted to introduce myself and say that I hope to be an asset to this forum and community and hope that I can learn from all of the threads listed here and give the little knowledge I have in return. Yes, I am a n00b but plan on reading up in the HMT Library. I have found the forums search function also...

My current project car is a 1990 Honda Crx Si with a Stock D16a6.
H/I/E, Adjustable Cam Gear, Aluminum Radiator, Chipped PM6 with Turbo Edit.
I have experience rebuilding engines but sadly not building for forced induction. "Yet"

I have D16y8 Bottom End begging me to be built but I will need a few opinions or suggestions from more experienced candidates before I decide to go a certain route with it. Either the a6 or the y8 will end up boosted before next summer one way or another.

Glad to be here...

Thank you, so far I have enjoyed the load of info here. Still trying to find the best Turbo for my setup tho. Looking to get around 200-250 HP if I can tune it right and need to know opinions. Here are a few that I have considered.

The common Ebay Kit with a T3/T4 Piece of junk.

The GT35R Ball Bearing Turbo, Possibly after Internals.

Or maybe a DSM Turbo to get started with...

I am still considering other options and would like to learn more choices.

Welcome to the Real home made turbo forum.

There are plenty of members still lurking and giving quality technical posts. Heck, no one has even really left, they just use new user names and continue to support the site.

The odd few butt hurt ******* still linger though, ie 3l capitan who is gaybanned instantly for being far to homo.

Haha, thank you Mr. Rick James. I will be lurking somewhat as well but mostly asking questions and sharing some.

Check out Evans Performance
He sells alot of CDM stuff but I have installed a couple of his kits on customer cars and they function well. Plus, for the price you can't go wrong.
