nice mate easy power from the civic turbo conversion so many parts cheap in america

[stendog]

looks like it shifts lol

[mikelvtr]

i no, he brought 2 cars of our mate, with the kit and a spare vtec engine for
2k, hes currently re building the spare engine going for bigger power, it pulls so well as it is. im seriously thinking about doing this, these are bullet proof, the amount stick this car as had and it just keeps going and going.

[andywiddss1]

as he had it on rolling road what sort of power

[mikelvtr]

no hes not as of yet, we went to pod and he ran just over 12's with a head wind against him,

we rekon its around the 200bhp mark but we carnt be sure, its got a piggy back ecu on it aswell, its the apexi neo, nice bit of kit its a little lcd screen and you can change everything a/f mix, boost the lot......funny when ya get the settings wrong, 4ft flames on gear change lol

I'm not a fan of VTEC engines with forced induction, its all about N/A for Honda engines imo.

if he ran in the 12s its way over 200bhp mate would say nearer 300 plus

Very nice mate, a friend of mine where I work now ran a Civic Turbo very similar to this.
