As of now, I have a Garrett T3 .42/.48 turbo that's been rebuilt, but I might trade it in with some money for a GT28R or similar. We'll see how it goes. When I go in to work tomorrow, I'm gonna order the headgasket kit, exhaust manifold gasket and bolts, and the downpipe/cat gasket. Hopefully when I install all of this, I will do a DIY for this forum.

I also forgot to say that I will keep a detailed spreadsheet of my purchases and the prices which will be included in the DIY for future reference for everybody

Goodluck on that man, pretty well rounded setup your going for prolly will pay off in the end. what hp goal are you going for? Thats the same turbo i'm going to be using, if you end up keeping it.

RE: GReddy_Civic's Turbo Project
 

Right around 190-200 whp. After the z6, hopefully 275-300. Thats why I bought a larger FMIC (31x11x3) and am buying the Hondata s300...so when I buy a z6, I can swap most of my stuff over to the new engine, with a few more purchases;)

Ok, Ill add in prices as I go but keep a running tally

RE: GReddy_Civic'
 

So I ordered my OEM parts yesterday at work. I will try to get actual prices for people (Mine was a lot less because of my discount) and then I will put that up on here for people to see. I also am gettin a rebuilt GReddy TD04 Ball Bearing turbo I think with 3k miles on it from a guy at Honda really cheap. Ill let you all know later. Goin to autocross right now, woot!

RE: GReddy_Civic'
 

Ok, ordered a vacuum manifold/brass fittings and added a thing or two to the list that I thought of that I need or people might need.
