Need help doing a ghetto turbo on my ls
 
whats up guys, just joined tonight. i bought a 95 civic ex at the auction the other day in mass for 400$, theft recovery.

I popped the hood and it has a ls motor in it, got lucky! other mods that i noticed were exhaust ,race clutch, and a couple other small things. intake and header are missing, i think it may have been previously turboed.
I was thinking since i own a couple os salvage yards i could do a mint ghetto turbo. But, i have no idea where to start. i have access a pipe bender also.

Where do i start? Can somebody give list of things i could start to collect so that i can get this ls civic turboed for cheap. I dont have ---- into the car, so i dont want to put a lot into the car.

thanks guys

Don't forget, he owns a couple salvage yards...hes got parts. not to mention the ability to see his "race clutch" by just glancing under the hood...lol ::)

that is a good point, how do you know it has a racing clutch? just by the feel?

dont worry i saved him over the phone. gave him some tips and also gave him a parts list. its a obd1 integra b18a motor.

i told him do a compression test before he touches anything.


ls=torque, i hope that "Race clutch" holds up well lol
