98 hatch turbo.. my first honda
hey guys... i'm a nissan guy (350z) but i saw this civic for sale and just had to get it..... i just bought a 98 black honda civic hatch back custom turbo..
the thing is a sleeper its got stock muffler/body parts/even steelies with stock hub caps....and the intercooler is almost invisible
the dude who built it is the guy who sold it.. its got a GM truck turbo t3/t4 flange and its a pretty good size and it just dumps out to a straight pipe cut off...
the motor is a DOHC b18 ? it is from a 96 LS so i don't know what b18 model it is does anybody know? but it has aftermarted pistons and rods... crank is stock but that shoudln't be a problem right???
the head is a non vtec head.. is it possible the change it to a vtec head?? would it do anything good ???
its good big injectors and fuel pump.. and some kind of weird computer system that i have no idea about because it doesn't use o2 sensors or anything??? i really don't know i should ask him about it again ??
its got nos dry shot but its not hooked up which i ll probably leave that way hahah
its got a couple other goodies too... boost controler , ect...
8psi makes 240? hp and hes got a high setting of 14 psi making 300hp to the wheels....
i drove it and it spins 3rd gear on 14psi LOL ..im going to need suspension and tires for it...
if anybody could give some answers on the gsr/vtec head that would be awesome... thanks guys hope to be sticking arond

its got no a/c or p/s roll up windows ... it has hid lights it has a ex cluster with tach.. the paint isnt that shiny but there is zero rust and only about 2 small door dings...fell in love with the sound and how fast it is hahah... it might even beat the Z from a roll on high boost..
got it for 3900 i'll take pics when i get the car i haven't picked it up yet but i paid for it.... just doing some research now i don't know anything about turbos or hondas...
he said something about an ectune ? any1 fimialri with this comuter system cause i have no idea..

i see... i wanna keep the sleeper look.. the only thing that sux is the straight/dump pipe... i wanna get a cut out with a switch so i can switch between straight pipe and a regular muffler... the turbo is a truck turbo too so it spools even when your daily driving you can hear it through the exhuast at low rpms lol
