Nice setup guy! I've got a couple of internal mods to get done before I get to the Turbo but rest asured that I have found a couple of shops (one in Ottawa and one in Toronto) that combined can give me the setup that I need. Much like you it will have to be custom kit but a kit non the less....Can't wait! Congrats!

I use nothing but 94 octane gas... Then at times I might use the NOS octane booster for an added 8 octane or so... She knocks as it is... RACE GAS!

All you need is a boost controller and maybe some sort of fuel controller. Simply put but there is tuning involved its not just a 20 minute deal.

redvic. did you do an engine swap (cuz it says vtec on the cover) or did you just change your head? cuz your car isnt an EX (black mirror no sunroof on pics). unless i missed reading something.

ah, so he was trying to control the fuel usage with a fuel controller?
Because you can't control your boost by using a fuel controller
slow
not to flame or anything b/c i'm pretty new posting here....
i've been reading the posts here for a while....
I must say...our cars are slow slow slow
8 psi or not...
just cracks me up when people say "let them tell us our civic's are slow now"
Even with 8 psi you are only putting power at one wheel....
I would spend my 10k on a K20 and then boost that...that would be real power...limited slip too....
but of course it's still FWD and that sucks bad...
I love my civic and I autocross it at Gainesville International Speedway...but I don't have the 15k it would take to truly make it "fast"....k20 t3/t04e
flame me all you like....but you know i'm right....

"Fast" is an opinion. Therefore it's impossible to argue with you. However, with around $5000 you should be able to make a 7th gen civic spank alot of factory cars that are considered to be "fast". Some examples - Mazdaspeed protege, Nissan SER spec-v, and the beloved Acura RSX-S. A 7th-gen civic weighs very little campared to these other cars therefore it takes less to make them in most people's opinion "fast".

yeah our power to rate ratio is amazing, as underpowered as our cars are, they sure are light, and ill be glad to take out the interior for good and watch the lbs and numbers drop from my car soon, then and only then will it be a "dragger."
