I just bought a Y8 head to swap onto my D16 so i will now have the beloved VTEC! I also found out today that sunday i will be picking up my turbo kit! :D
Kit comes with :
D series log manifold
T3/T4 .57 trim turbo
front mount intercooler
DSM blue top 450CC injectors
oil sandwich plate for the oil fill line
HKS knockoff blow-off valve
38MM wastegate
intercooler piping
all of the t-clamps needed
3 inch downpipe
dump tube
I probably wont be putting either of these on until the spring but its a hell of a winter build!
HOLY HELL AM I STOKED! fuck merry Christmas, more like happy thanksgiving for me!
Damn dude. Everybody is modifying their carz. :lol:

I got an ok deal on it, i might not keep it tho cuz money just got seriously tight. Ive had a few people say "Turbo on a vtech head?" It might not end up that way im just getting pieces together for a good winter/spring build. We will see how this whole thing turns out. haha

It'll be fine. You can boost anything. Just tell your CPU it's for high altitude, or something. Your CRX needs to be able to operate at 50,000 feet.

New shit is always good. Presents for yourself is always a plus!! So what type of engine management you gonna run?? Are you upgrading your fuel system too ??
JDMJonny
