Default first time post! doing a turbo kit

hey whats up guys im new here so help me out. Im doing a turbo kit for a buddy,he has a civic. I did a kit for my civic but i didnt know anything so it didnt work out. After gettin a dsm i know alot more. Anyways he has the 14b turbo im jsut wondering whats the lowest the boost can go? also do any places sell the thing for the feed oil line? i did mine from the oil sending unit is there any other places? And what turbo would be better for his sohc civic one off a probe or the 14b off a 1g dsm?? let me know what u guys think were about ready to roll jsut doing some last minute research. p.s do they have an charts on how to do the coolent lines i forgot how mine went thanks alot

welcome to the board. Just research theres lot of info on this board. Look around read the FAQ and projects. And why would you want to know how low you can get with the boost?

you seem cool enough so I'll try not to be an -------.

you should have posted this in the forced induction forum, just let it get moved there, don't make 2 posts, it makes me mad.

stealthmode sells oil lines, check out his thread in the classifieds for order information, I'm not going to recommend anyone else since I know steve personally and his kits are good.

14b is a pretty shitty turbo in my opinion, if you want to go small then get a .42/.48 t3 from a saab.

let yourself know, check out other people's setups. search around in the forced induction forum to see what other people are using. don't use the search function, it sucks, but just look for threads that might have pictures or parts lists.
