Turbo'd 7th gen
I have a 2002 civic lx, and it is running 7 psi of boost. I will be dynoing it soon, so i will have numbers. The shop that made my kit is producing them. The owner developed a fuel system for the return less fuel system, and it works great. Contact me if anyone wants any info on getting one of these turbo kits.

Please give us your list of what brand and products are going to be in the kit. How much will it cost?
This will be great if you could help us finally get these baby D17's a turbo kit.
First off, way to go!!!
Some quick questions, can you please answer them all:
1. Why do you need a return type fuel system if your going to be running low boost?
2. Do you use a boost controller, either a manal or electronic type?
3. Do you still have Air Conditioning?
4. Any clearance problems with the turbo ie. front subframe cross-member below A/C condensor?
5. How much for the manifold?
6. How much for the whole kit?

Catalyst, I've seen your pics!!! The workmanship is awesome! Good choice on the design of the manifold. I KNOW you didn't loose a/c because of it. Please ignore 75shot and any other non-believers for the time being, then straigthen him out with the pics.
Edit: No, don't ask me where I got them, let him enjoy posting them!!!

Rep Power: 0 First off 75shot, it isn't excatly new taht civics get turbocharged and our 7th gens arent any different so I suggest you cut down on the sarcasm. Second, eventhough it sounds interesting, what good is a turbocharged 7th gen engine? Most street legall kits make 50-60 more hp so we're talking like 175-185 for an EX engine. I much rather drop in an RSX type-R engine and not deal with the lag in the turbo.

Okay, since you found the link who wants the pictures then? I saved them, but don't have a server to host them off of.
Would have been nice if Catalyst did them himself after all that hard work.

Rep Power: 0 Correct Me if I'm wrong, but I believe that 75 Shot used to be a member by a different name a long while ago, so he isn't really a noob, AND his point is correct that pictures solve everything, I'm not saying I don't beleive him, but, posting a picture will put all the nay sayers to bed. Time and time again, people have said they've done this and that do their car, but no proof. I never got to see the pictures on geocities because it's bandwidth ran out.
Hoping for proof...
