you guys are so lucky to live near to where you can get parts so easily. i live in the UK it is really difficut to get parts for my turbo'ed 94 civic d16z6 saloon. i have to import everything and i cant find anyone that knows about these cars and how to tune them ive had to do every thing myself especially when i have never attempted anything like this before.thats why i want to say a massive thanks to who ever made this forum and who helps me to fix my monster civic..i dont think there is more than 5 turbo'ed civics in the uk and definatly no saloon turbo's.you have made things so much easier for me.

Many Thanks

hey extreme in which part of the uk do you live?

 

somerset

 

waaay from me, im up near manchester, i was intested in seeing your civic... how much did it cost you in total to boost it?

 

umm i havent got a total yet but i havent got all the parts i want yet as in running out of money. but the turbo kit was about 450 and i bought a new down pipe as the one in the kit was carp that was about 100, blox fmu was 60 still in the post missing link was 30 i think but ive been told this is only a quick fix. but i will see how it runs till i get some more cash

 

i thought about going for an engine swap or even going for boost, but i have a few friends that have swapped cars of different makes, and it has always turned out that they have an unreliable car that is not running to its full potential, any ways keep us updated to how it goes, i think i will just buy a fast car instead of making it fast...

 

Ah dude lose the fmu asap. Get a chiped p28 and tune it.

 

making a slow car fast is much more fun. the only swaps i know my friends have done is put a escort rs turbo engine into a escort cabriolet and a 2ltr mondeo engine into a 1.1 mk3 fiesta van (very quick) but hondas are more tuneable than ford rubbish

 

yeah i know i need a chpped ecu but the first thing is getting one then finding someone to tune it which would nearly be impossible in this country

 

it is not impossible to have it tuned, theres is a shop about 5mins down the road from me that does it, there must be more shops round the uk, if theres one here, and i live in the countryside, dont know what the shop is called i could find out for you, i know it sounds like a joke buts its on the beaver centre in Northwich, Cheshire
