Jkan2001 · 08-25-2002, 05:16 PM

Hey guys i recently picked up a sohc apex i ball bearing turbo kit. I got it in the mail the other day and the bastard didn't send the the aem fpr, a crusty old turbo probe i/c and the fuel rail...i'm pissed. Can you guys take a look at the link and tell me if it looks like everything is there that i need? I want to make sure i got all the rest of the parts that i was supposed to. I tried to lay it out the best i could...

It says the link won't work when you click on it. But just copy the address into a new browser and it should work.

all you need is an intercooler and some sort of fuel management and your set

fawk im jealous of your turbo, i wish i had a ball bearing turbo......dayme, i heard some dude had a ball bearing on his fully built engine and it made max boost (20psi) at only 2800rpm!!!!!!!!

are you asking about whether or not that's the right kit that comes from apexi...cause those things aren't included in the factory fuel kit.

you'll prolly need an fmu and some kind of fuel upgrade like a fuel pump or bigger injectors

I know that the fuel stuff isn't included. I didn't get the fuel upgrade kit. I'm just asking if the parts in the picture are all the parts that are included in just the basic kit. I want to make sure that guy didn't short me a pipe or something that i need. I ordered a 12:1 fmu, missing link, 255lph inline fuel pump. I'm going to use my fields SFC to tune it and eventually add some 310 injectors.

looks like you got what you need...i thought the piping was grey though??

hopefully it works out, sorry if i sounded like smart ass or something before, meant no harm dude.

thanks...no prob. The piping on the apex i kits are anodized blue with red fittings...i think it looks cool. I was gonna do all white with red accents on my car. Then i got 2 strut bars for 30 bucks and they were powdercoated blue so i guess my car is gonna be tafetta white, red, and blue now....i'm so patriotic

I want to this weekend but the punk never sent the instructions so i can't start till I find a set of instructions? Do you also have the apexi ball bearing kit for the 92-00 civic? If you do can i PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAASE have a copy? I can't find it anywhere.

aerotrends · 09-05-2002, 08:55 AM

i got it but i'd have to like scan the whole thing to send it to you. maybe i could send you a copy of the instructions if you pay for like the copy fee?

sounds good...if you don't need it for like a week or two maybe you can just mail it to me priority mail and when i'm done i'll mail it back....of course i'd pay for all the shipping. Can you please email me at josephkan@hotmail.com or IM me at jkan2001. Thanks for your help...
