i have a 94 civic hatch si. I am going to be buying a turbo kit in the next few days im looking to push 5 to 7 pounds of boost, my question is what are the absolute essentials for doing this. I just want to make sure that i get every thing i need in this kit. I don't think is has a blow off valve(i know i will need one), is there anything else? gages, meaters, gaskets? anything you can think of that doesn't normaly come in a kit. pretty much I just wan't to know the bare min on how to get it to work, or if anybody knows any sites i could check out.

thank for your knowledge.

 

this is the kit that i want

 

That looks like an eBay XS Power auction. There have been many complaints about XS Power's cheap kits. But you will need new injectors, fuel pump and adjustable cam gears. Also I would get a boost gage so you can see if you're getting peaks, leaks or surges.

 

where do you sugjest i get the injectors fuel pump and cam gears at.
do you know how much they run

 

every1 runs the 4g63 blue or black top 450cc injectors they can be bought from Ebay usually under 100 or check out a u pick it plus the clips 15 plus the resistors 10 at radio shack and some old gaskets u can port out from the junkyard they should give them to u or buy them for 10 at autozone or if u find all that at the junkyad price goes down considerable the fuel pump walbro's are good they go for lk 100 on ebay if u run fuel pump and injectors ur going to need an adjustable fuel pressure regulator they go for lk 50 for B@M's in jegs cam gears go from 70 to 100 remeber u'll also need to get some kind of ecu control device chipping or vtec controller 200 it's not cheap but every thing gets u closer to a quicker time buy the fuel stuff first then buy the cam gears

 

forgot u need a racing fuel filter also

 

You won't need cam gears or a "racing" fuel filter.

I would stay away from that kit. That manifold will crack on you.

You will need injectors and some fuel management.

that might help

 

I'm glad you said something. I was about to lay the smack down. Cam gears... racing fuel filter... :uhhok:

 

do NOT buy that kit, and the reason you shouldnt buy that kit can be found 100 times over on homemadeturbo.com. Your gonna end up breaking crap all over the place if you install that. Im thinking doing a little bit of research on turbo set ups would be a good idea too sence you seem to be a little green in terms of turbo knowledge
