Is that an 1800 type r motor? I have a subframe and most parts to fit one of these. The turbo was only ment to be a stop gap until i did a vtec. Cant see me going away from the a series turbo now though. Good luck |

I was only thinking the other day that whilst this forum will always be the No1 for a series tuning, sadly due to the relative cost of bits now its a distinct possiblity that more 16v cars are going to creep in, but hopefully more that are turbo'ed and some properly nice builds.
