turbo swap

I have a 91 eclipse w/blown engine, would it be too difficult to swap the turbo kit on the civic (2002) using the turbo, down pipe, inter cooler and lines from the eclipse??? has anyone done this setup??

it wouldn't de a direct bolt on but that is given.

a new mani and your gonna need some additional piping plus fuel management and gonna have to modify the downpipe if not make a new one
evverything else should be straight

BOV
turbo
some rubber chare pipes
injectors( might need to be modified)

it's just a homemadeturbo setup

Well fuel management meaning alcohol injection or a greddy emanage or a vafc, etc etc.

Injectors meaning, your DSM injectors will NOT fit the 7thgen civic, or any DSM injectors, or RC's or RX7 injectors blah blah blah. They're all about an inch or so too tall. Hence...the alcohol injection or the other means of fuel management. Other means are only good for upto 7 or so PSi though. If you want higher, you'd need to upgrade your injectors in that case. And well....just read up man there's plenty of info on it.

Anda s mentioned before, the manifold, piping, down pipe, and dump tube (if external w/g) will most certainly be different. Oil lines you might be able to use...but you have to check lengths.
