Turbo kit was made by the shop i work at.

sold the kit off and the car. made over 400whp daily.

nice set-up u had… :rockon:

very nice :clap:
i love that top mount manifold

makes babies with car

Didnt you post these all like 3 months ago…

b16 head? do you have blockguard or sleeves? any other upgrades? im doing a ls turbo build and am curious!

Ah I didn’t know you sold it. what did you get? Kinda reminds me of mines. not many DA owners have top mounts yet.

no bockgaurd, those are junk, i dont believe in them, 502whp on stock sleeves on 116 octane!

ls block, b16 head.

i sold it for a 99-00 civic Si to do the same to!

i loved the topmount and also hated it. we made it one day and never again!

so no power steering? that is the only downside I see to having the topmount, but it looks damn good. Is that a backdoor intercooler?

I’ve sene a custom made top monut where PS was retained.

I would like to see that.

gimme a sec I’llg et ya a pic. it was in an EG tho i beleive.

turbo on passenger side :open_mouth:

:drool: I would love to have that manifold for my turbo in the making. I don’t have a\c anyways, but I’m not going without power steering.

Just do the power steering breather mod so it’s inbetween not having PS and inbetween a manual steering rack.

Do you have to get the manifolds custom made or is there a place online that has some? I’ve seen some people making them, but it was a while ago.

looks sweet!!
ok guys… i’m seeing halfwide radiators in there… that one on top looks like a civic radiator… what’d you do for the hight difference?

i’m currently doing a hmt setup… got $320 into it hopefully will have less than $500 into complete setup when i’m done… (not including fab/labor costs as i do my own work) all i need now is oil line kit (getting stealthmodeperformance oil line kit) and i’m getting a 1g dsm BOV… and need piping… if i want to keep internal wastegate on the turbo, i’m gonna have to ditch the full wide radiator… if i pull off the internal WG linkage and fix the thing so it wont open, i’ll have to buy a WG which i’d prefer not to…
