just got an eg civic rolling shell of a mate and decided it needs to be turbo'd so heres what ive done so far.

its the one on the left, unfortunately its got a ful;l body kit and lexus lights but they'll be coming off when i can find some standard replacements



got an engine out the back so took the gearbox off ready to go on the stand



the lifted the fecker onto the stand and started striping it down


made a little indoor workshop


didnt know what a single cam 16v looked liked so had a quick peep inside


took the exhaust and inlet manifolds fo and gave it a quick once over with some degreaser



then got this last night. its only a k03 off a golf gti but im only planning on running around 6psi which should take the power to around 180bhp with the other things im doing to it.


will update once ive done a bit more

that just makes me sad coz i can afford a b series engine. looks amazing though. what is that out of coz it looks like a b18 but with the rectangle pattern going down the side so im not really sure.


anyone got any good suggestions for places to get intercooler pipework and a turbo manifold from because i havnt had much luck so far but only had the car 3 days so thats probably why

haven't updated in a while so heres what i've don sinse.

upgraded front disks to grovved, and done a rear disk conversion

and got an intercooler of a transit



saving up a bit more to get this manifold



should be running between 150 - 200bhp with about 153ft-lbs at 13 psi and around 240bhp at 17 psi which aint bad for standard internals
