i am debating on whether to buy a 1988-91 or 92-95 civic. i will be doing a b18 swapon which ever car i get. i have a t25 talon tsi turbo, o2 housing, b.o.v. kit, boost gauge, my question is what else will i need besides an intercooler and piping to use the turbo on the car. any electronics? which car would you recommend for the swap and turbo. if anyone has a dsm turbo on a b series swap in the civic please show pictures. thanks

 

which body do you like better is kind of the question? more round or more boxy?

 

That turbo is much to small for a B18.

Berz out.

 

^Correct it is actually perfect for a stock sohc D though. I'd shoot more for like a 16G or a T3 super 60, maybe even a smaller t3/t4

 

You'll also need some kind of fuel management. You could go with a simple rising rate FMU for a while, but you will most likely end up changing it down the road. Id recomend AEM EMS, hondate, crome. Far as the gens go, its all up to you, which one do you like better?
