d16z6 - 200whp?

[honcivic25]

hey guys i have a 95 civic ex with a little over 100k on it. ive been doing research on the turbo kits and i want at least 200whp. a lot of the kits that ive seen were crank hp. is there a kit that can do this or would i just have to run a custom job? thanx

Your best bet is custom.

Yeah, custom will be your best bet. Check the sig for some turbo z6 numbers.

hey dsrspwr, how much $$ was ur custom setup and labor?

[dsrspwr]

Alot, I'm guessing around $3500. I bought all brand new parts with the exception of the turbo, which I got from a junkyard, and the flexpipe. I also used a particular shop, which does excellent work but charges a pretty penny, for my intercooler piping and had it powdercoated with a black/silver grain finish.

mhmm, almost made me decide to go the z6/y8 route, i wont know until the moneys in the bank though, i know i wouldnt be as worried if my stock y8 blew, than my stock ls on the same boost...y8=cheap and very "boost receptive" same with the ls, but the ls makes more in the end and costs more, but as for your engine, do a full checkup make sure everything is in proper working order before boosting, unless you feel like buying a new engine...but 200+ is easily attainable on good tune. hit up turbod16 with other q's they have some great info
