the i/c piping wont fit on your intake manifold. the rest of the kit should work ok, but you might need to alter the i/c piping a bit, especially if you have a/c.

there are a lot of "pipes" on a turbo kit. i had no idea which you were referring to, so i included that. your kit should fit fine then.

I'm still trying to figure out how, "the i/c piping wont fit on your intake manifold" you could just use some couplings :retard: well, at least that's how everyone I know with a turbo connects their piping to their intake mani

but yes, the exhaust manifold will fit

well, thats because the d16y7 and d17y8 have different intake manifolds... the y7 is top feed while the y8 is side feed like most other honda engines.

to make side feed pipe fit a top feed, you'd need another 1' of pipe, with a 90* bend, and an extra coupler.

Right... I'm crafty enough to figure it out.. I got pipes for a y7 though already, but if I do a head swap, I always got these pipes to fall back on.

yeah, I know what mani you're talkin about now. for some reason I thought he had the regular lookin mani.

could there be some issues with the turbo hittin the radiator or the crossmember?
