Default Boost on an '06 Si

I just put my money down and bought the Si, should get it in the next few months...we'll see.

But anyway, most of the mods I will do to the car will be done in the engine bay. What kind of turbo should I add to the engine, or should I even add one at all? And should I mod anything else before the turbo or just buy it first??

Thanks for the help!

Yeah I decided I wanted something with a little more giddy-up...been riding around in a bagged civic for a few years, sooo slow.

Do you think the K20 RSX turbo kit will fit?

Youll prob be the first 8th gen turbo Si in the states

it should be close enough that Greddy will crank out a different set of charge pipes, and maybe a different intercooler, and have it on the market in the next month or two.

Got it. itll be a Greddy T51 turbine, and expect about 260hp. they are playing it safe with low boost, but with an LSD and 260 hp, thats going to be one quick ass car. im thinking 13s, maybe low 13s if you can lose some of the pork that new SI is carrying. 2800 pounds. what were they thinking?

Sick. Keep us posted, and get some pics up, Man.

Is the '06 officially known as the 8th gen?
