Finally made my decision

After buying my civic this year and putting much thought into it, I've decided, I'm going the turbo route. I informed my father that he has no say in it and he was suprising ok with it. So now I must save like crazy so I can have it by this time next year. I'm hoping to find one used so i can save a bit since I'm still in high school (junior now). I have an 03 EX coupe and I'm planning on getting the Dezod kit. I have to get the down pipe for the ex, e-manage, and rsx injectors. Is the PCV needed? I'm hoping to find those used or a better deal then what the dezod kit charges. I'm so f-ing excited! Now to save...

CONGRATS!

BTW some internals are forged to start to the stock engine is nice. Since you have an EX if i remember correctly; get the head P&P'ed, and get the new "stage 2" turbo cam that was JUST released!
You can really turn the boost to respectable levels with a solid set of internals, worked-on head, and a new cam + gear. Looks like the D17 is FINALLY getting the parts it needs to be turbo'ed to 200+ hp easily. YAY!!!
