I would really like the opinions of those who have had it done to their engine because that's a big step/commitment. If I am to get a turbo for my baby, then I would do everything except milling the head to keep the compression at factory spec. anybody done it or planning to[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/IMG]

I don't actually know how it will perform on your civic. I actually own a zx2 and go on the zx2.com forum alot. My brother owns the civic. Well anyways, on the zx2 the package adds tremendous gains. with ported and polished heads, bored throttle body, and racing cams. it's adds about 58 peak hp. Many zx2ner's have seen a high 15 low 16 second stock zx2 jump all the way down to a low 14 and almost 13's. Go to www.zx2.com and the car on the front has a gude head package.

well our intake and exhaust flows well stock. so i am hoping that the internals dont so a head job and port and polish will give us big gains. we will just have to see when someone puts down the 1600 for the gude packedge.

Well from all the people that buy gude stuff on my board like header, throttle body, heads, and turbos. Half say that gude is great and the other half say they were missing parts and the stuff didn't fit at all and that the customer service sucks, but if you keep calling and yelling you'll eventually get straightened out.

Man you're right. People can't say anything without providing a social security number and a video of the actual thing. This site needs to really improve on that. Or better yet the members who were flaming in that thread (Celica guy).
