I was just getting ready to paste this. This info is coutesy of Hwoody77 on 7thgencivic.com! That's a pretty detailed list he threw up! The T3 turbo is bigger than a T25 right? anyway....good lookin' joe!

I'd recommend a manual boost controller over a electronic... electronic tend to be inaccurate some times... Ever says so in the manual.

do have any specific recomendations?

 

[joe7987]

Yes, a T3 is bigger than the T25 (about 90% certain on that). I'm not sure if I wanna go with a T3 or a T3/T4 yet. Any advice from anybody?

 

[Matt.]

I'd recommend turboXS boost controllers, tial waste gates, and turboXS or greddy BOV's

a t3 super 60 is the best turbo for our car. Making max power between 3500 and 4000 rpms. t25's are not entirely bad for our cars, because they do tend to spool fast. But if you want a fast spooling turbo with a t3 flange which will allow you to upgrade, pick up a t3 (.42/.48 )

 

[joe7987]

awesome, thanks for the advice!

 

[Matt.]

faster spooling turbo's tend to make power faster, like around 3000 suffer less turbo lag, but hurt in power.

Yea... I know the little turbos spool up quick.... but I want something that'll be capable of giving me a bit more power. That's why I figured T3 or T3/T4

A t3/t4 is wayyy to big on our little engines.

 

[Rick James]

there was a girl on CC forever ago who had a boosted 7th gen, she said it still wasn't very fast though. Maybe the d17 doesn't respond as well to boost as usual hondas do I'm not sure, thats a good question

you talking about the girl with the 7th gen si that blew her motor?

 

[EM1_ProJect]

Joey just buy a brand new turbo, find a junked intercooler, manifold, etc. and bend some piping. it shouldnt be any different than my crappy little setup. cheap, and just as fast !

 

[Matt.]

there is a guy on homemadeturbo.com who said if I can get him a head flange like off a header or something He can make a custom manifold for pretty cheap.

I plan on doing that.. it's just a matter of making sure I do it the right way so that I don't have to lose AC or PS or any of that good s**t. lol.

 

[Matt.]

I bought h22 pipes... They are custom fit to my car. You can make anything fit.
