Default If I were to get a turbo...

What parts and pieces do I need to be ready to go and any suggestions on where to find the parts? I have an 02' EX d17a2. Thanks.

Homemade Turbo FAQ

Scroll down. There is a pretty good shopping list toward the bottom.

shouldt be too hard. Hardest part is getting a good manifold and a place for custom charge pipes. Everything else is universal.

If youre willing to wait around, and look, EBAY, can have some really awesome deals if you want to buy piece by piece (I wouldnt recommend buying a turbo kit). The only bad thing about EBAY, is you have to be careful about quality.

yeah the charge pipes will be hardest. you could prolly just buy a few mandrel bend pipes and cut them the way you need them.

check kteller.com for piping also, there are a few complete kits out for the 7th sohc, i personally don't mind spending the extra cash for a complete kit, i'm going w/ the greddy kit w/ their bov and i/c, sure i could get it done cheaper but who the hell cares its only money
