well the reason im gonna stick with the 1.3 is to see how much horse power i can actually get of it,also it would help me to gain more experience on doing turbo converions. i cant think of if any cars that are 1.3 litres and turbo charged.if i can get a small enough turbo to spoll up quickly enough itll give me a lot more mid range punch which should give me the edge over standard civics

It is a lot of work and will be quite expensive so you would do better to get a bigger engined car. you will need:

full wiring harness - these are all bound together inside the car so you will get all of the plugs for stuff you dont have like electric windows and ---- there are a few on the dash that wont go anywhere also on the clocks.

ECU - for the car which you are using to swap from, you will need to go MPFi as DPFi is ---- and you cannot chip the ECU for boost, you will also need the mounting bracket for the ECU

Fuel tank - as yours will not support the fuel pump or the fuel lines that you will have to replace

Fuel pump - standard one will be more that good enough

Fuel lines - gotta get some fuel lines to mate up with your new tank and pump arrangement

Fuel filter - gotta get one of these for a PGMFi equipped car

Inlet manifold - from the injection car but i couldnt tell you which, if any, will fit, gotta get it complete with the fuel injectors and all of the appropriate sensors

Throttle cable - as yours i dont think will fit

Doesnt sound like fun to me but whatever...

Thanks for the info hopefully should have the efi converion done in the next few months the turbo converion who knows.

Oh and not forgetting the dizzy for a MPFi car which you will probbly have to botch on somehow

cheers but i think i can use my original distribitor but ill take your word for it

If you are on carbs you will only have two wires going to your dizzy, to run MPFi you will need to have the CYP TDC and CKP sensor in there which you dont have therefore you will need a new dizzy

what are the cyp and the ckp

dunno, but i know you dont have them and i also know that you need them

DPFI or Carb dizzy doesn't have the cylinder positioning sensor
