Well, so far this board has hooked me up with my 4 disc brake setup, and the car's commin along real nice. Now is decision time...

This is gonna be the biggest mod in my car.... i want to swap in a turbo engine to a 1995 Civic DX Coupe...

I was lookin at other engines, the only non-turbo engine I was considering was the H22A... from like a 2000-2001 prelude... can someone tell me what turbo engine would go into my car?

I was lookin at the mr2's. The turbo is bangin, would that fit in my car, and how easy... can i get mounts or are they custom? all those good questions... will the tranny match up or is there work needed?

thanks!

 

also, wheres the best place to get these engines with low mileage?? online, offline, doesnt matter... just a name that people around here trust.

 

Anything will fit with money. Just swap in a b series engine and turbo it.

 

so lets say i do that, in total how much will this cost?

granted we'll be doing the swap with my engine lift and all in my garage, how much will all the actual components cost, roughly...

h22a engine swaps in 95 civic coupe no problem, that turbo'ed should be bangin... im just trying to slate out my costs

 

PM Slacker...he just swapped a JDM B18C into his civic...he can tell you all about the headaches and hassles of doing it...it is SO worth it.

 

thanks!

 

alright, lets say i put this GSR engine in, and turbo it... thats like 178hp engine + say 100hp... 278... not bad...

theoretically speaking... if my car only has a 15" sub in the trunk.... granted the box is big.... thats all that weighs my car down... my stock metal hood that weighed a million pounds is now fiber glass.... my car should be pretty fast? right? if i threw on some 16" konigs, cuz right now im rockin 18", yea i know.... GHEY!!!

 

Get some new rims oh and turbo it!

 

94 coupe with a Jdm B18c and i ran a 14.9 with I/E.. its well worth the swap.. But now im being fed ..and thats also well worth it..
