Utter wank, well known in the BMW scene. Think about it, I paid more than that for just a stage 3 T3 for my RST

there was a post on here before about the xs turbo's.im sure the conclusion was they are getting better ie not blu tacked housing etc anymore

Daviet

but lets be honest we get shafted for everything in this country
everything for sale here can usually be found for half that price somewhere else in the world

cheers i was just looking and i couldnt see the waste gate and oil pipes as i was thinking about doing a turbo on a civic

jawanne

i kown inter coolers are cheap over there then here lol

Daviet

just buy a car with a turbo already fitted it will always end in tears other wise lol.or a severe dent in the bank balance

EIL132

I would agree, however the manifolds they sell are for lhd cars and dont fit, let alone the finishing on the insides of the manifolds and the chocolate turbos

jawanne

ture i didnt see that the bastards well spotted

jawanne

just looked at other civics and there the same as the other .but the one in the link is a 8 valve and there saying only use on 16v d series

Daviet

as i said above start with a turbod car or expect to pay decent money to do it right.not expect a £500 kit of ebay to work wonders lol.that deffo would in in tears
as james also said i really cant see the quality being up to a decent standard for that price

jawanne

cheers

my mate recently bought one of those kits and when i started fitting it for
him it turned out to be a nightmare. hardly any of it fits, even the
pipework does not fit correctly, we had to modify the manifold to fit
but when we tried installing the turbo it fouled the radiator, he told me
it was a bolt on kit,BOLLOCKS i spent 2 days making it fit.
when i eventually got it running we found that as soon as it boosted
the ecu cut the engine,this is due to pressure in the vacum pipes which
go to a sensor somewhere, the ecu is not designed to allow for boost
pressure so thinks there is something wrong, dont know if all civics are the same?
