ok i have a 89 civic hatch dx with a 92-95 d15vtecmotor in it that i got off of h-motorsonline.com and i was wanting to know of any good sites to get a turbo for it orifit is ready for a turbo...one of my freinds looked up and saidthe bottomend was already ready inmy motor but figured i would check...but i need sum help finding a good turbo for it and kit and all that and wat kinda work i would need to do to push a lil extra psi lol im kindanew toall this

 

the more psi the better your internals are going to have to be

 

like wat all kinda internal work would have to be done..and do u know if the bottomends of these motors are ready for a turbo like ive been told?!

 

how exactly did you friend check the bottom end and tell you it was good to go?? Anyways, stock block can handle 6-8 safely, after that you want to look into upgrading down there

 

ok well thanks and he didnt check he said he found it on the internet that my motor was already built bottom end ready for turbo or sumthing soo figured i would ask around..and any good sites i can go to to find me a turbo

 

i got mine from blaast performane go to homemadeturbo.com and its one of their sponsors decent prices for garrett turbos

 

rods and pistons

 

I think everyone here is wrong so far. I may not have a boosted civic here but I know from what I've researched, and with proper tuning and engine management you can boost way well above 6-8 psi on a stock bottom end. You may need to upgrade head studs, but like I said, with proper tuning, timing, fuel, and engine management you canATLEAST make 200+whp on that bottom end. If you dont believe me, go to honda-tech.com and search boosted sohc's and you'll see what A LOT of them guys have been able to do. You'd be suprised.
