<~JDM~>
Hey whats up guys. Im trying to run boost on my stock b18b. Im really lookin for a small turbo. I dont want to do more than 240hp. I want to piece my own kit together, As i dont want to go cheap or go extremely expensive. Im looking for a decent turbo that will spool quick but wont loose power close to redline. Any sizes recommended? brands? what kind of manifold? not lookin to spend mopre than1200$ on teh kit. I searched sum websites. but i really need sum enlighting. lol. :lol:

Stock motor with turbo = bad idea. But there is a ton of info on the site already about the subject. If I'm not mistaken there is a sticky on turbo builds. I had one turbo'd on stock motor and it didnt last long

I'm boosted on a almost completely stock motor. I rebuilt it and installed ARP head studs, otherwise completely stock internals.

Just so you know $1200 is not enough to get the car turbo'ed. You will probably have to spend a bit more then that on the turbo kit. Then you need injectors, engine management, an exhaust, someone to tune it, ect..

I've got $1000 alone in my exhaust and tune.

Yeah, he came on hard times after the war was over, lost part of his foot in Iraq. I'm pretty sure he and his boyfriend are going to be moving in together; they've been getting quite serious over the last couple of months and domestic partnership is allowed where he lives. They make a good couple, very supportive of each other
