i'll sell you my turbo kit for 1100. Go to www.cardomain.com/id/hollaback23 to check out pics and specs. easily upgradeable to a 16g which would make excellent power.

I guess lag wouldn't be much of a problem when you are only spooling to 7 PSI. At what RPM in 3rd do you get full boost? And the 18g turbo is a pretty good sized turbo, more than enough for most hondas.

ill give you 750 shipped for the turbo kit

Im also looking into going turbo soon. But When you go with a turbo setup, will you have to lose the abs, PS, etc...?

Thanks for the offer but to low.

Like I said, its quick enough that its not even noticeable. Im never really cruising in 3rd gear at 2000RPM or anything. Youre still not getting the whole compressor efficiency thing. In the DSM world, where guys make 300whp with 16Gs @17psi, sure the 18g isnt a bad size turbo. But here, we pay more attention to flow, efficiency, and peak power since we have many more RPMs to play with. There are guys pulling 300whp at 10PSI with full boost at 4000RPM. Keep in mind as well, I shift at 8500 and my powerband climbs up to where I shift. 4500RPM of many more CFM compared to an 18g makes much more sense to me. Why would I want to make 210/160 @ 7PSI on an 18g when I can make 250/175 on a nice sized hybrid with a smooth powerband to boot? Big turbo does not always = lag and undriveability.

As for the PS, AC etc, it all depends on the parts you use. ABS is not effected unless you run some wild intake or air/water setup. PS most of the time is not effected either unless you run your compressor on the drivers side. AC can be worked with as well, its just you typically wont be able to run more than a 2.5" downpipe due to the crazy sharp bend coming off the turbine housing. Retaining AC depends on your manifold/downpipe/turbo combination.

As for Drags not fitting well...nothing is easier than the Greddy kit. It really is bolt on and play....that doesnt make it better in my eyes. My Drag kit required no modification, really. Many times you have to shave the webbing in the block, but thats not a big deal either. Trim a bit of useless metal, big deal? A lot of mods to make it fit is DEFINITELY an overstatement, and not something I would even consider an issue.

Alright, lookin for opinions. I have a 96 Integra LS B18b with 5spd GSR tranny and GSR head. Im also lookin for to go turbo. Id like to hit low to mid 12's preferably. Also am lookin to throw in some performance internals. The head is going to be ported and performance cams,springs....etc..so my question is, what will be a good turbo kit. Whether it be custom kit or bought as a kit. im open to all opinions. Also I have access to two dynos at no cost so I could tune hondata or other engine managment options.

"borass07" Question? How much mileage is on your motor and do you plan on building your motor?

Wow this has to be one of the most informative threads about turboing an LS that ive read in a while. Now i know its open to opinion, but it seems as if the rev hard kit would be the best pick taking into concideration fit, performance, boost creep/spike. Am i correct? I just need help figuring all this out!

So when you all run 7-10lbs of boost, this is on stock internals yes?
