The "Ls/Vtec" Turbo Setup.. that Blew ass
 

Last night me and beau put on his old Turbo B16a setup onto my daily driver LS/Vtec crx. It was a huge pain in the ass. Mainly due to resources (where we were at) The LS/vtec sits a bit higher than the b16a so the downpipe had to be modified. My crx has been totalled so the front end was a complete bitch to work with. Beau was bending my frame with his bare hands HAHAH.. j/k But we did bend the ---- out of the front supports to get the radiator in their. Once that was in, the hood would not shut.. Problems after problems last night..

Then once we leave the damn downpipe is like dragging on the ground (good job beau) ;)

So I didnt have any forced inducted tunes, so I uploaded them this morning, and go spin around the block, with a huge ass cloud of smoke.. I come back and I look in the engine bay, and his ------- turbo is just puking oil from the exhaust housing..

Now back to the drawing board... :o

Everything was fucked up on the front end... just a complete mess, the intercooler sits funny.. beau cut the ---- out of my front end, hahaha, I didnt take any pics of the hood line because it was tooo embarresing, it has like a 3 inch gap!

Is that expandable foam holding the passenger side headlight in place? Gotta love the ghetto-rigging ;D.

Re:The "Ls/Vtec" Turbo Setup.. that Blew ass

Hey, I'm with ya. I was in an accident in my first crx and used the foam corner protectors from the replacement hood to stop the headlight from jiggling around :D. I don't even want to get into how many zip-ties I used to put that car back together.

Re:The "Ls/Vtec" Turbo Setup.. that Blew ass
 

The oil issue was fixed, oil return had a kink. Still need to do some fine tuning, now more than ever.. since I lost my ls/vtec map for my ecu.. ----.

Well after some slight modifcations last night, the car seems to be running pretty decently.. No boost gauge ??? or air fuel.. the wastegate is set as low as it can go, so roughly 5 psi. It pulls pretty good especially the bottom end. I am gonna keep this setup on for awhile until I can find a good small t3 turbo to use in conjunction with the manifold beau made me.

Must say its nice to drive a boosted B-series..

Re:The "Ls/Vtec" Turbo Setup.. that Blew ass
 

how do you guys like the JG manifold? Notice big improvements?

I want one soooo bad >:(

Re:The "Ls/Vtec" Turbo Setup.. that Blew ass
 

Well I dont have anything to compare it to, since it was the first manifold I put on this car... :-\

So far seems pretty good

Jeff

Re:The "Ls/Vtec" Turbo Setup.. that Blew ass
