what did you do about your 02 sensors catalyst? I have an LX as well and was wondering if i got a custom downpipe if i just get some 02 bung holes and place them there, would they still read right? Doesnt there have to be one sensor before a catalytic converter and one after for it to read correctly and the CEL to not go spastic?

Yo Cat great job on everything!!!! I can't wait to get my kit. But i have a question: earlier in the thread you talked about the SI Blue for the intercooler piping. Is that what you have on your piping? how much more does it cost?

After installation is it possible to change out the blow off valve with a different one? or is it all dependent?

we can make adaptor plates to fit any bov. But the turbo xs type H and RFL are direct replacements.

am buying a SF Turbo kit from “Torque King” for my Civic Ex. Is there anyway I could order a set of install instructions and your no weld oil pan fitting? I can paypal you some money to cover your parts, expenses and shipping. If you have the official install on a computer file could you email me the file if it isn’t too large to ronald_mauldin@hotmail.com

Thank you for your time and consideration,

I'm going to take a guess here and ask: I would have asked that question as more of a reliability question.. not a will it fit question.

Will the auto tranny hold up to with the added power from a low boost turbo? Most people tend to label the auto tranny as weak, and easy to tear up. I was wondering the same thing myself.. Have you installed a kit in an auto, run it and 7 or more PSI and beat the **** out of the car? You know most people who buy a turbo are going to be romping on the car daily, so it needs to be proven that the tranny isn't going to go klink, snap, crack, kaboom, boink ect... And if the kit is capable of being setup at 10 or 12 (or whatever the max amount of boost is) you know they are gonna be maxing it out.

Just curious.
