can anyone tell me if its a safe turbo for a stock civic? i got full exhaust and cold air. also will i need a new ecu or flash it or what else do i have to do when i get it.
look at it this way, you may be saving money now, but how much will it cost you down the road? When that turbo blows its seals, thats gonna be a 300 dollar rebuild. Next when that manifold cracks it can cost upwards of 400 bucks to get a decent replacment sence repair of the orginal wont be possible because of the shitty material there all made of.
All and all invest more now and youll enjoy it more later when your not dealing with downtime and costly repairs
