okay... how much are you gonna be spending for all that?

 
Rep Power: 0

well i already have my turbo, fmic, and bov. I will probly end up spend around $1500 for the rest of the parts

 
Rep Power: 0

expect to spend a lot more...

peicing a turbo kit together may seem really easy but in the end you end up spending a lot more... that's why ready built turbo kits are better... but yea.. i'm feeling you.. i already have my t3 turbo and bov.. i wanna make my own setup but i'm starting to lean towards the sf turbo kit group buy...

Where are u getting you intercooler piping at?? Just wondering

 
Rep Power: 0

GReddy makes mandrel bent universal IC piping w/ couplings etc. It's only about $150. I might just get it custom made though.

 
Rep Power: 0

yea i was planning on getting it custom also

How come you are using a .45Bar spring? You don't plan on going below 7psi at any point? I have all the regular boost springs. I was going to use the .3bar so I can have a low and high boost setting.

 
Rep Power: 374

Yes...that is $43 shipped...
Email me, ill tell you how to pay...this was from an old group buy but i can sell them at this price whenever i want.

all u have to do is tighten the spring i can go lower

Tell me, how are you going to use an FMU? Yo dont have a return line, and if you put it on your supply line, you will have a very bumpy ride once you hit boost. And if you are putting a return line system in your car, expect to spend over $2500 for just that. Im not trying to be mean or anything, just trying to figure out your fuel system before you blow it up because of what an autozone guy said.

I am not going to be running high boost until i have built my engine, and hopefully by that time hondata would have come out with something. If not HKS F-con or AEM ems

I promise you i will not blow up my car, u have a shop working on your turbo right?? You act like i don't have a shop working on mine!!! Thanks

Personally I would work on my own car for two reasons.....One I would learn for the experience and Two I could actually take pride in my car that I was the one who modified it.

Thats what i am talking about Captain!!!! hehe

 
Rep Power: 312

I was just making sure, because it would be a shame to lose any 7th gen's to a boosting accident. I hope your kit turns out awesome. i want to see some pics when you get it done... ok?!?

 
Rep Power: 0

Thanks man, I like your kit also, can't wait until u get another dyno done with more boost

 
Rep Power: 312

Are you gonna dyno yours? I want to find an EX engine so i can build it and put a bad a$$ engine in my car. But thats a ways away

I wish i had turbo.....

I think we have something here called "turbo" but it's not as extensive as the one's you all can avail there.

The so called "turbo" setup here costs around P 25,000 i.e. $ 500

 
Rep Power: 0

yes i will dyno, i will probly dyno it a week after i put the kit on, which will probly be in mid summer

Buying Soon:
GReddy E-manage
GReddy PRofec e-01
IC Piping
Custom Downpipe
ACT Clutch

I'm buying the clutch during installation... and the IC piping and downpipe will be made during installation.
Including everthing in list here... my whole kit is comes to $3517. Not including hardware. Everything is brand new. No rebuilds or anything. I think I did some good shopping. I might have this thing installed by mid-June instead of mid-July.

As far as installation goes: $85/hour for installation. And an additional $185 to dyno and tune.

I decided to go back to the E-manage instead of the AEM EMS because the EMS is a little overkill. There are hidden costs included with it, and I think it's complexity is more than a low boost Civic requires. And... I don't feel like waiting.
