3hrs to install? That's pretty friggin' quick no?

So in the time frame that i paint trim pieces and clear headlights, you have a turbo installed...

Now THAT's time efficiency

now thats hardly the case... u should know that.

the current generation Si and the previous gen Si are both DOHC...

having one less cam doesn't determine the engine's turbo capabilities... as in, just cuz its a SOHC doesn't mean it can't boost high.

if you go to the groupbuy section, there's a thread there with information on the SFpower turbo kit thats selling for a pretty reasonable price right now.

1 member has the turbo kit on his LX right now (same D17A1 engine as the DX) so its running fine...

other members also have other turbo kits, custom ones..... u can do a search and find more info than you want on it.

I know the Si is a DOHC, and the older gen Si was as well. What I mean is that the coupe and sedan versions of the Honda Civic are all SOHC. The Si is a hatchback and thus does not fall into the catagory that our vics fall under.

So I do know the case. And the member with the Turbo LX is Catalyst who has the SF Power turbo.

i think he means the 01-03 sedan and coupes are SOHC...the 02-03 Si are the HBs, and the previous Si had a coupe version too.
