The check engine light comes on as a shift light on the civics without a tach. Yes it is a thing. Get a map sensor block plate. It will close when boost hits so the ecu doesn't blow codes. Turning up your fuel pressure does give you extra fuel each time the injectors pulse.

Yeah mate you are right for sure, I still believe you can turbo your civic on a budget , I just think these ‘kits’ although close enough aren’t ever really right, for the level of headache required to make them work and the extra unexpected costs, it’s better peace of mind just to piece together the parts yourself so if they don’t fit you can only blame yourself 😇😁🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🥰 thanks for your support my man , very wise words

If you use a ebay kit replace the parts known to fail. I bought a ebay kit replaced the blow off valve, Waste gate, fuel pressure regulator and boost controller.

[@adorno1010]

oil coming fromt the front of the turbo is due to the 2nd plate you put on there for the oil line. it needs to have a pin size hole or it will flood the turbo with oil. wastegate needs a fire ring which is why it was open at idle, reason for it not boosting. in my opinion. good video

[@TURBOTRISTO]

It does it has a built in pin hole restrictor 😇

[@canton7180]

Speaking from experience Honda’s are the easiest to boost the right way because of the affordable tuning interface with hondata, other makes require new harnesses and dedicated aftermarket engine management, but seriously rule of thumb it is always smart to rebuild the short block and rotating assembly and install forged rods and pistons, mls head gasket and arp stud for good clamping force, colder plugs, injectors and fuel pump, that is the minimum or you will vent the crankcase with a rod -you will always want to push the boost up so you might as well build the engine accordingly

Without tuning the ecu, what you could do is place larger injectors 85% 100% + flow to run on gasolie and also a pump with a higher flow, disconnecting the vacuum intake from the fuel pressure regulator so that the pressure does not have variations, cold sparks. 10 psi boost stock internals

When I first bought my 97 EJ8 Civic coupe it had a JDM D15B VTEC block with a D16Y7 head (non-VTEC) and it was "running" on a P2P ECU (D16Y8 VTEC manual). I put a D16Z6 head (92-95 1.6L VTEC) on it, an eBay turbo kit, and I used an OBD2A to OBD1 step-down harness, and I used a P28 ECU (92-95 Civic 1.6L VTEC manual) that I socketed and chipped with a Xenocron kit and basemap for my setup. I also ran Mitsubishi Eclipse 440cc bluetop injectors. It was SO much fun to drive and pulled hard enough on 8 psi to beat modified WRXs and Mazdaspeed 3s. Not bad for a car that I had roughly $2000 into. I also had an AEM wideband to monitor air fuel ratios. Oh, and I still own that same car and it currently has a fully built LSVTEC turbo in it and it currently makes 612 whp.

You can turbo just about anything without tunes and fuel pumps and injectors etc.. the only probably is if you try and shortcut all that stuff the car is either gonna run like crap or the motor is gonna blow.. getting tunes is to preserve the motor and make it perform at its highest level possible and make sure everything is where it should be degrees of timing, afrs, fuel, etc. so to answer the question yes you can turbo something stock.

Maybe in the video you should include testing the oil feed line works & priming the turbo (just pulling the oil feed off the turbo and starting the car with the distributor not connected is the easiest way you can check I think?) Something so simple but can take a good away a good chuck of your turbos life if not done correctly :)

[@TURBOTRISTO]

yeah I know about this method only really neccissary if its a fresh build with a new oil pump, this method is proven and we know the oil pump works, maybe I should have done it for the camera but i assure you there is oil pressure, the turbo spinning is more because there is no lubricant in it and the bush bearing needs to bed in, it spins like a mofo after a few hours

[@kayrams1792]

The long pipe going to the air intake is extending the lag by causing the turbo to work more to produce little pressured air. A turbo piped connected to the intake manifold need to short and narrow to induce physical air pressure at low exhaust output.That eBay turbo will perform optimally at high speed and long distance. My opinion. I stand corrected.

I wonder if they used such a big exhaust side on that turbo was to ensure it didn't make much boost/ exhaust flow restriction and blow up? On a 1.6 a T25 would give more boost much sooner I would expect, but at far more risk of engine damage. Personally these days I think I'd just hunt down a nice D16 A8/9 twin cam, and change the cams, exhaust manifold and intake, and add an appropriate chip for a tuned nasp twin cam D16. Those engines are nice for a D-series, 130-135bhp standard and 7200rpm. Should be able to get that to 145-150bhp with much less hassle than properly turbocharging a D16 SOHC for a bit more.

I can certainly recomend this kit and doing a turbo conversion but keep in mind this kit still needs to be modified and I would spend my money on a brand name wastegate and some money on better fittings and better external waste gate piping this kit makes the gate shoot flames in the worst possible spot and you will need to take the car to an exhaust shop it will also need good fuel pump and injectors as well as a tune, a stock d16 can handle 12psi all day on its factory internals but a built one like you have will easily hold 20-30psi and be a monster to be safe I would recomend the fuel system and waste gate upgrade and a tune and run about 15psi you and your car will love it

And "Wuhan War Whistle" is fkn comedic genius too. You got my sub, dude.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Haha thanks bro

[@buttazgtr]

Im in NZ and i have the 96 lxi hatch with the d16y4 and its got the tacho, good to know wont get an ebay kit

[@TURBOTRISTO]

nice bro, thanks for watching my man please subscribe if you haven't already

[@pablomarquez4431]

Yes. I've been saying the same thing about those kits. Not good, too big. Im going to fabricate my own. Definitely going to go small. Probably a k03. Hopefully I'll keep my ac with my custom kit.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

I am working on a custom kit that keeps the air con for future, stay tuned it will be available off the shelf soon

[@oforrester82]

ebay turbo kit not so bad.. upgrade turbo and wastewater later

[@sergiomclovin672]

LOL thought this looked familiar, you were driving around Noble Park just round the corner from me. Im a mechanic do a lot of Hondas, worked on Nissans for years if you want a hand hit me up

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Haha thanks bro yeah it’s me lol check out my build on my own car

[@wonderors]

Go to a junkyard and get some old supra 550injector with it's connector clip and a 90s accord resistor. It should help getting more fuel.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Nice only issue is we don’t supras in our junk yards ever

[@machito9477]

Car won’t make more psi you need to play with boost controller and the map sensor will only let the car pass a certain psi

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Yeah I figured as much

[@cheetoshotfries2289]

I need an ebay turbo kit but my problem is i want to keep my precat deletes and have the exhaust welded at a different location…what you think itl cost accord14 v6

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Hard to say mate I haven’t seen any kits for a cu4

[@marquezmonterrosa928]

Some timestamps would be great! Great content!!!!

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Feel free to add some, thanks my man

[@elkameleong]

I read somewhere the needle on the FPR gauge fluctuates once the oil in the gauge heats up.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Yeah someone told me the same

[@venomhemi3914]

awesome. would this kit work on a cammed 5.7 v8 ? thanks for any info.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Well yeah you could use the turbo and intercooler and blow off valve but the rest of the kit no obviously not, thanks for the comments and thanks for watching though

[@jrx2662]

I think I read or heard that you might need two turbos, one small and one large, the small one is for more of the take offs while the large is more for the full run? the reason was because the bigger one does not kick off in the beginning, but the little one kick in right away, the help's the performance of the engine! just saying.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Thanks mate

[@odlanierandrades3542]

The gauge u used for the psi show less then actual psi i had the same one

[@TURBOTRISTO]

oh really yeah i think the quality is no good on most of these parts

[@FroztiProductions]

I have a glow shift and the lower the boost the less accurate. It gets accurate past 5psi.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

@@FroztiProductions just goes to show you pay for quality

[@FroztiProductions]

@@TURBOTRISTO Yep, but some of us get a huge kick out of making cheap crap work good. I absolutely love eBay parts, the added challenge is worth it to me. And if you're a KZbin it makes good content.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

@@FroztiProductions it sure does my whole build is eBay check out my car and other videos on the channel there are heaps of triumphs and heaps of fails

[@Kenny-bm9lf]

Did the same years ago need a check valve at map, block egr,and head studs...happy boosting

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Thanks for the kind words Kenny, please consider subscribing big things coming on the channel

[@juancarlosrodriguez6738]

Don't know how I ended up here but this sh is lit 🔥 keep up the good work and don't forget the ones that will be here wen you get million subscribers

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Thanks Juan you the man!

[@laszlovona]

building a honda is like buying furniture from IKEA.. you have everything off the self, complete kits almost with instructions... I do not care if anyone start hating on me.. that is how it is.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

you are 100% correct my friend!

[@thunderwolf9775]

I was gonna do this to my 87 Ranger. Thanks for testing it lol

[@TURBOTRISTO]

You are welcome man, you can still do it just order the parts individually

[@skaterbi922]

ive never boosted anything in my life. but i have plenty of mechanics and "figure it out" knowledge and respectfully it seems like a lot of the problems with the turbo kit are simply user error.. couodve swapped the bolts and studs and fixed 2 issues in one for starters

[@TURBOTRISTO]

I did do that in the vid thanks for watching

[@javierbautista9721]

Bro you’re funny in you’re own way LMAOO I like you’re content

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Lol I’m holding back haha

[@lisamontgomery6426]

I could hear the turbo once you got on it, however idk how much benefit you’ll get without adding any fuel at all, if you got just the kit and one of the plug and play ECUs or one of the plug in kits that just lets you add fuel to the stock map it would work much better.

[@TURBOTRISTO]

Check out part 2

[@scottyknows7234]

I like the content!! I've always been kinda of iffy about the ebay kits. Probably replace that wastegate and get a good tune. Definitely informative!!
